Well, I got axolotl fever and got another axolotl. Now I have 7!, and plenty of tanks around. 5 will be in the big 60 gallon while two will go into a 20 gallon.
This new one seems to have some sort of strange lump growing by its private area just under its leg. It is too small to tell the sex, it is about 4 inches (8 cm's) long. It seems very active, healthy, and at a good weight, but I am concerned about the lump. I won't be able to take a good picture of it until Sunday or so when our friend comes over.
It almost looks like it is just a deformity and that it might just be a male sexual organ slightly exposed or protruding outward in the skin, or just some extra skin.
Can anyone advise me on what to do? He seems perfectly fine other than this lump.
I'm happy to say that he is a Melanoid, but an interesting one at that
. He does not have any gold pigments, its eyes are very dark and he is a light black color rather than dark with many dark black spots all over his body, he's just beautiful!
I'm going to wait to name it I think until I know the sex of it.
Thanks guys
