I'm waiting for my shipping which is my 7 newts, I read in some article, one said we can't keep chinese fire-bellied communal, which the other said we can. which statement is right?
The chinese fire bellies can be kept together but if you mean communal by different
species, its best not to do it. i once had a paddle tail newt that claped down on my
FBT's foot, thank goodness the toad wasnt hurt. Thats my personal experience from
mixing species and it very rarely works long term

I already admit that my salamanders is paddletail.
I keep these 7 in one place, now already 7 days. and no one eating, what should I do?
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.
