How can I get a fire belly newt to eat?

My son has three fire belly newts. One is about 2 1/2 inches long and the other two are 1 3/4 inches. Up until yesterday they were in the same tank as a couple of fire belly toads. We had to remove then hence the toads were attacking them. Early yesterday the bigger newt ate a cricket but the other two still refuse to eat. I have been feeding them the newt sticks. Any suggestions?
