Hello everyone!
I'm a member of an axolotl enthusiast group on Facebook. In that group, its very similar to here as people will post questions and concerns about their axolotl. It seems like every time someone has a problem with an axolotl, on Facebook, the whole group recommend tea baths. When I recommended a salt bath (with citation to this forum!) I was actually chastised because salt will sting the axolotl. This is completely contrary to what I have learned (and experienced) my self. I thought tea baths were meant to regrow slime coats (or something like that) rather then treat physical damage or infection.
Are tea baths a new thing?
Disclaimer: No, I do not assume information from a Facebook group is always accurate. That's what this forum is for and I have had great success with all of the advice I have ever gotten here. It just seemed weird that many different people recommended it so confidently. Any way, Thanks everyone!
