Five weeks ago I purchased a speckled grey axolotyl for my daughter using a 3 foot long tank, say 130 litres, a fluval U4 internal filter set for the water surface rippling only. From what I have read on your site it appears to be a female and has seemingly done quite nicely. At the four week mark, last Saturday I purchased an albino, and it appeared to be a male. On introducing him to the tank he completely covered the female and then left her alone after the second day. Both are around 6 to 8 inches in length. On Wednesday, day 5, we we found the albino dead in the bottom of the tank and had completely turned a red hue or dark pink. The original axolotl is doing quite fine. I checked ammonia levels and they are almost negligible. pH is at 7.4. Temperature is a constant room temperature of 19 celsius. What could have caused this when the other is doing quite fine?
