Lots of Larva... food?

[john]

I have resently had my baby newts hatch and I have had them for two days now, besides from brine shrimp and micro-worms, what should I feed them? They are now aprox 10 mm. Some have used their food up all ready.. I have one small hatchery stated but I NEED MORE FOOD...

Daphnia! I used daphnia almost exclusively until mine reached an inch in length, then used whiteworms, and now blackworms.

Do you know a good place that I can get them fast and semi-cheap?

Live food is best, but I couldn't find live food. I raised my Chinese Firebelly larvae with chopped to bits frozen bloodworms, which they greedily accepted. So if you can't find live food, that's a good choice to fall back on.
