Hi all,
I'm really worried about one of my axolotls. I have two, both female, about 2 years old.
A couple of weeks ago my black axie started spending most of her time floating midway up the tank (sometimes just below the water surface) or standing on two legs (photo attached). To make things even worse, she seems to have gone blind. There is nothing in either of the eyes (no discolourment / patches) but she can no longer find food unless i bat it around directly to her mouth and she can feel the water movement.
They're in a four foot tank, with water filter, water temp between 17 - 20 C and have a diet of frozen bloodworms (one a day / every other day each) and river shrimp (20 - 30 live shrimps a week into the tank).
All advice appriciated! Thank you
