Axle is back in his tank!!! Thank-you all for the help over the past few weeks. We have learnt so much and are now much better equiped to look after axies.
Axle has been in his tank now for about 5days. He is eating again(doesn't like earth worms yet, but I'm sure he will soon) and being active. His gills are looking the best they have in a long time and his coat looks great. The white substance on his gills dissapeared after his return to his tank as well.
We are going away for three weeks, but my sister will be looking after him, so I am only slightly nervous about leaving him!!!
We are also hoping to get a new axie when we get back. I see you have to isolate them for a while, how do we go about that?? Axle did have a tank mate but she died a few months ago. Our parameters seem to be settled now and can' wait to get a friend for Axle.
Thanks all again!!!
