I have 5 spotted salamander larvae and things aren't going well. Everything was GREAT until last week when I ran out of brine shrimp. The store I get them from his out and doesn't know when they'll get more and my larvae won't eat anything frozen, freeze dried, or anything other than live food. I have no source of live food for them at all. I've tried getting small organisms from ponds, lakes, and streams, but I can't seem to get anything. Besides, they're too big for those now anyway and would need a lot to fill them up.

Does anyone have any tips? Please, it's been a week since they last ate. I don't know how they're still alive!

I don't know anything about this but what about ants? Could you go catch some outside ?
