Rico, one of my A. andersoni, is almost completely morphed now, so I've moved him to a vivarium. Large glass dish of water with a slate ramp, coco fibre sustrate, a hide, some fake plants.

He seems happy enough just sitting on his ramp. Have I missed anything? I'll probably add some moss and some real plants at some point.

I can't offer any valid advice, but, I'd just like to say that's pretty cool.

I believe they can be housed like Ambystoma tigrinum. Deeper substrate might not be a bad idea ( the one side looks a bit shallow ), and a few more hides might make him more comfortable? You can also make a tunnel for him out of PVC pipes if you want to. You can cut the PVC in half and put it against the glass to allow underground viewing if you want, too.
Looks like a good morphing setup. Good luck with him! -Seth
