Alright, I have an axolotl that is about 1 year old. Normally he is super active and will follow people around the edges of his tank and is just generally in constant motion. He normally eats super well, generally frozen bloodworms that my son (3 years old) feeds him. They're the little frozen cubed ones and he gets them almost everyday and eats 90% of them just not the ones that get stuck in areas he cant get to. About 3 days ago my son threw in a handful of Goldfish, the cheesy fish shaped crackers. Yes, its cute but he did it while noone was watching and by the time we realized, they were complete mush and our axolotl was trying to eat some of them. I immediately removed all the Goldfish and did a large water change of about 50% of the water. The next day he was super lethargic, barely moving for the entire day, I tried to feed him but he showed no interest. So I did another water change. Its been three days now, he is barely moving, I haven't seen any bowel movements and he isn't eating. What can I do? Should I just clean the tank and wait a few days before feeding him again? Thanks for any assistance.
