Unhappy Axolotl injury
When I first received my young leucistic axolotl from online, I quickly realised that one of the vertebrae in its tail was out of place making the tail lopsided. His/her tail still functions normally, however is it worth taking him/her to the vet.

I cant post a photo however because my phone camera doesn't show the picture properly as a result of water reflection.

Sounds strange. If you think the tail is dislocated, it's worth contacting a vet to see if they would help.
