Meet Lumos the Second
I wasn't sure I was ready for a new axolotl so soon after the death of my last baby but as soon as I saw this little sweetheart I fell in love. S/he has been in the wars. One toe is half missing and two of the gills on the right side of the head are also gone. I'm hoping with the right care I can nurse Lumos back to health. What I'm a bit worried about is the white marks around the mouth and what appears to be a bit of skin peeling away from the lips. Any ideas as to what it might be?
Lumos currently seems happy snuggling up to the ice bottle or laying on top of the filter and has eaten the feeders that were cycling the tank prior to me bringing her home. I don't know that I have all the skill needed to rehabilitate an axolotl but I couldn't leave it there to lord knows what fate.
All suggestions gratefully accepted.
