Taking care of a dragonfly is difficult because it is a non-domesticated predator. It eats live food that it catches and kills for itself. However, if you have a dragonfly you cannot release into the wild for some reason, and you don't want it to die, you may be able to give it adequate food and water by placing it in the HUGEST terrarium you possibly can. Set the aquarium up rather as you would for a pet frog, with plants, earth, standing water, and adequate warmth. Put living mosquito larvae in the water (dragonflies really like to eat baby mosquitoes). If you can't find any, and your pet store doesn't have any for sale, ask the pet store staff to recommend a good substitute--they have to know how to feed many weird types of animals. Place the dragonfly in the terrarium and COVER the terrarium securely and tightly with a screen. Remember, the dragonfly won't kill all the mosquito larvae, and you don't want mosquitoes loose in the house.
When careing for any reptile please keep in mind were in the world it is from. Water dragons are from a hot and humid area in Asia, so you need to make sure its humid enough and also make sure that you have a large area of water for it. My best advise to you is take it to the vet as soon as you get it and have a good exam on it to make sure there are no issues you need to know about and also it is always good to have a good relationship with your vet when dealing with exotic animals. They will also give you some good advice on the home care of you waterdragon.
