My fire salamander female has given birth to over 10 gilled babies. I have removed them from the adult cage and put them in 2" of water with an air stone, and have included some plastic hiding vegetation. I have offered blood worms and have observed feeding. I have a couple of easy questions:

1) How often should food be offered?
2) Is my setup OK?
3) What other foods should be offered?
4) What is the typical duration until the gills disappear?
5) Any other hints?

Thanks in advance. -Larry in NYC
