I recently adopted an axie who was kept under horrible conditions in almost no water. 1inch to be accurate, a friend of mine rescued it and after rehebing it for three months it has gained weight and doubled it's size. But as a result of the former care the gills shrunk and after three months of rehabing have only started to grow back. I've seen other axies with their beautiful feathery gills and feel sorry for my little axie who is always going up for air and floats on the surface. Maybe it's normal behavior but I don't know. I was told the first owner was trying to force it to morph. What can I do to help my axie and make sure it has a good quality of life.
