My recipe: Thaw and rinse frozen bloodworms. (Use a fine mesh strainer.) Place bloodworms using a tweezers, or long spoon, on a dish that is permanently placed in your tank. This method keeps the bloodworms from whirling around in your tank which causes a mess. It also allows your newts to feed more easily, and have access to more bloodworms. It's also fun to see your newts head for their "dinner plate".
My axolotls refuse to wait until their bloodworms thaw. I thaw it slightly, to make it look 'hairy', and rinse it off. When I toss it in there, one of them always swallows it whole. Sometimes it's so big they can't close their mouth around it. But they refuse to spit it out!
