    first what are you feeding them?, they may be stressed or they may be use to a specific food

    the seller said, dry worm or silk worm.
    this morning I found 4 of them died...
    this is so bad...
    I hope the rest will be okay.

    Were they wild-caught or bred in captivity?

    i would think that silkworms would be too big and i have no idea what dry worms are.
    Try blood worms, they are very nutritious but the frozen kind tend to ruin the water quality.

    Also, what temperature is the water? A tropical climate might stress the newts, which as far as I know prefer cooler water (low 20s C). Is the aquarium in an A/C environment?

    Just a thought.
