Pseudotriton ruber or Gyrinophilus porphyriticus? Or other salamander species?

I would go with ruber, semi-quatic habitat with lots of nooks and cranies to hide in and on land some soil to burrow in and bark to hide under. Northern spring salamanders I know get fairly large and live primarily in moving streams from the ones ive seen in the wild.

NP, Tim herman would be the expert on these so I would reach out to indoor ecosystems before making your final decisions
