Hi everyone
Cheese, my albino axolotl suffered from an injury today while i was suctioning water out of the tank. I was performing my weekly routine water change in his tank, and for a second i happened to look down to make sure the water coming out was going into the bucket, but i felt something got sucked into the other end of the hose. Turns out my axie accidentally swam past that end (keeping in mind its a large tank, and i kept that end of the hose near the water surface away from him) and the suctioning force left a pretty larger injury on the right side of his head! I have to mention that he is a strong axie, hes around 3 months old and measures 13 cms, he eats very well and has a great appetite, he's active and healthy. What should i do?? i posted 2 pictures of the injury below, PLEASE any recommendations? will he be ok? what should i do about this? i feel terrible, this is my fault for not keeping and eye on him at all times while suctioning water out of the tank.
