Sorry for the bad photo!

I recently put some wild plants into my aquarium

I today see this guy hanging out I’m very positive it’s a Fire Salamander. I’m from Germany and it matches photos on the internet

My question for anyone who knows is: unfortunately I am not positive exactly what pond or stream he’s from since i visited a few
Can I put him in a stream that might be close to where I found him? I would assume that Salamander parents don’t just drop their babies into any random stream thats why im asking.

I have raised tadpoles in this tank before successfully so I could try and raise him BUT this would be a lot of responsibility which is why I’m not very comfortable with the idea. (They are a endangered species and get over 40 years old)

First sorry for the bad quality photo

I believe a European Salamander tadpole has hitchhiked some wild plants that I got out of a stream about 3 weeks ago

The tank is not heated and has a land area but I’m not sure if I want to take on the responsibility of raising an animal that is considered a Vulnerable species

I do not know specifically where he’s from since I went to multiple streams and ponds around the area is it safe for me to put him somewhere there?

I have raised tadpoles in this tank before successfully

I’d be impressed if anyone gets the city where this is next to
