Default Help please - unknown condition

Hello all,

I have a 6 year old Axolotl who is tough as nails, we've moved 4 times since we've had him and he's always been fine, no problems at all.

Lately though, he seems to have a little skin problem. He is purple of colour, but developed a little greenish patch on top of his head. At first I though nothing of it, but it seems to be getting bigger.

This morning I also noticed that along his body he seems to have developed some skin changes, it doesn't look like shedding, but more like spores, greenish and yellow. It stretches all the way from his head to his tail, still very faint, but there.

He doesn't seem to be sick, he is still active as always and has a tremendous apetite.

There has been no changes in his environment, except for the fact that the summer has now suddenly kicked in and he is getting some sun during the day. But other than that, nothing.

Any ideas / advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Wilmarie
