Hi there!
First question:
I have 4 Chinese Firebelly Newts and some time ago, I discovered that a baby had hatched. He has his own little enclosure and has done quite well. He's recently lost his gills and climbed onto land (though sometimes he dips back into the water), but I notice he's not eating the little soft heaps of baby brine shrimp I'm leaving for him. I want to make sure he's happy and healthy!
What should I feed him? Will he still eat in the water?
A second question:
I know these guys don't like strong light too much, but my light burned out on my baby newt tank. I'll replace it of course, once I find the type of bulb. He gets light from the rest of the house, but how important is it for him to have good overhead lighting?
Thank you so much!
