I just went over to check the temperature in Lumos's tank since it's going to get hot today and found her on the floor.
I don't know how she got out of her tank the only opening in the glass lid is a little triangle in the corner less than an inch along the side.
She must have fallen about 1.5 meters to the floor and I suspect she's walked about a bit because she had fluff on her head that must have come from under her tank stand. I don't know when she made the leap or how long she'd been out of the water. I just thank God the cat is outside. I thought she was dead but when I picked her up she moved so I put her back in the tank. Now she's standing still but her tail is at a strange angle and I'm worried she's broken it.
Has anybody else ever had an escaping axie?
Does anybody know what kind of damage a period out of water could have done?
And is there anything I can do to help her if her tail is damaged? I'd hate to think she was in pain.
I know fish will occasionally make a break for freedom but I've never heard of this happening with an axolotl, especially with a tank lid in place. So I'd say to everybody out there be aware they can get out of a supposedly secure tank.
