Hi Everyone,
First time Axolotl owner here looking for some advice for an injured animal. My girlfriend and myself sort of inherited the Axolotl from our mate and as such are completely inexperienced in managing our Axolotl called Sally.
Anyway we keep here in her own 40L tank with the temp always between 18 and 20 degrees however we had to clean her tank last weekend so we had to transfer her to the larger tank until I was done. Unfortunately she was attacked quite severely by the tank "mates" and as a result has started a very bad fungal infection on all four legs and part of her gill wherever there is damage (pictures attached).
We've started her on the fridging treatment as per the guide here and twice a day salt bath for 10 minutes with a solution of 2 teaspoon per litre of water as per instructions here.
Couple questions, is this the right action to take and if so is there anything else I can do to improve her outcome?
Cheers,
Hynesy
