I have two axolotles in a 20 gallon long tank with a small filter and sand substrate. Axle Rose is acting normal and fine but Toothless is lethargic and is sitting with his mouth gaping open. I feed them bloodworms which they LOVE but Toothless hasnt eaten in days. he lost interest a few days ago, but then ate again, and had lost interest again.
was hanging in the top corner of the aquarium gulping air- and his breathing seemed labored. he moved to a back corner and was "sitting" on a decoration- like he was lounging. then he moved to under a branch- he stays in each of these positions for over 12 hours at a time.
I did a water change immediately when I saw him acting wierd- prob 75% and I added a bubbler.
but now its been three days and he is just sitting with his mouth open.
is he constipated? The only items in the tank are sand, snails, feeder fish, a branch, and a few plastic plants.
any advice would be appreciated.
