I have had common Eastern Newts most of my life, but now I want to try some more exotic species such as Alpine or Marbled if I can find some. I have a 20 long with 6 adult Notophthalmus viridescens and now I am looking to start a 40 gallon as well. I have had the red bellied Chinese and Hong Kong newts a few times and kept them alive up to 20 years. I always train my newts to take freeze-dried tubifex worms from my finger, as live food is not easy to come by. I supplement with newt pellets for the shy ones. I am not up on all the "recent" developments in the hobby, so I could use suggestions on a tank setup. I see there are some products available now that I never dreamed of as a kid. For instance, is the new LED lighting good for newts?
