I have two juvenile Axies that I purchased about 2 months ago. Recently the larger one of the two (Deoxy) is intermittently writing around violently. He does this mostly at night, and it will go on for about a half hour, before he calms down and appears once again healthy. I learned yesterday that forward turned gills can be a sign of stress. Deoxy has always had forward turned gills, so I'm wondering if he is just like that naturally? The other Axolotl Tesla has displayed none of these symptoms and remains happy and healthy. Both are eating normally and do not attack each other.
Here's a couple pics... The top two are pictures taken today of Deoxy. I was unable to document the Writhing on account of it only happens from time to time, again, usually at night. (it started 4 days ago)
here's tesla. Looking healthy. (so I don't think it's a water related problem??)
please let me know what you think, I'm really worried about Deoxy!
