I'll try to find one but I found the best method to be around a ten gallon tank filled with some shallow water (with filter) there should be plenty of dry space for the newt...not just driftwood coming about but maybe some sizable rocks with moss so they can crawl out because every newt is different and some prefer more land and some more water. Make sure the tank has a lid because they can climb the glass...they usually fall off eventually but they could make it over the edge. Bloodworms are a good staple food but they also enjoy live earthworms at times. They would do ok with some small fish or dwarf frogs too.
