I've had my first axie for about a month now, she is about 3 1/2 inches long and i'm worried about her! she is doing alot of floating, before it was horizontal but for the last two days shes been floating a bit wonky, with one of her back legs up. i noticed a film on the water and there is alot of bubbles on the surface and she seems to gulp alot of air, especially when i'm feeding her. Also she has a lump on one side, any idea what this could be? their is still gravel in the tank, but under a layer of large stones so it would be quite hard for her to get to them. i feed her 4-5 blood worms (from frozen) per day - is this too much, or too little? i do a water change once a week and the water temp is usually 19 - 21 degrees, i keep it cool with a fan. Please help because i'm really worried about her, she doesn't look right!
EDIT: i just did a water test using a kit that tests 5 things but i don't really know what they mean! here they are:
NO3 - 250
NO2 - 10
GH - 10
KH - 6
PH - 8
