Ive had my axolotl for about 6 months, he lives in a large 4 foot tank all to himself and a few gold fish, of late he had been air gulping which caused him to float, but i gave him a gentle massage and he release the air, he'd be fine for a few days and then gulp some more.
recently i found him looking very sick, he was foating on his side but at the bottom of the tank and i found that the fluffies on his gills have been pulled off, im asuming the gold fish got him when he was feeling week, so i put him in the fridge in shallow water so he could touch the bottom but could only leave him there over night as our fridge is too cold. now i moved him into a smaller tank, a little less then two foot with ice bottles to keep him cool over summer, but he is still floating, now upside down
im scared i will loose him, what else can i do? he wont let out any air, and he has had a terrible few days! please help
