For the umpteenth time I have set fire ( usually melted) too my sons plastic linch boxes..this was by far the most spectacular, never had flames before! I stupidly put them on the cooker to dry and then go to cook tea, and manage to put the wrong rings on...completely banned now fron putting anything but pans on the cooker. Anyway, I keep my axolotl tank in the kitchen as generally it is one of the coolest rooms, beside a high up, mesh covered window which is now kept open at all times. As soon as the smoke and flames where spotted I threw a damp blanket over the tank , put out the flames and then set up a fan to blow away the smoke. I have now removed both axolotl from the tank , put them into fresh water butt water and fridged them.
Now I am aiming to do a 50% water change and further 30% changes over the next week or so, I supose the question is is there anything else I should do? the fumes where horrible, I am suffering from sore eyes and can still taste the stuff so I hate to think what the little guys are feeling.
