Hi all,
I’ve recently adopted 2 Axolotls.
They are in the tank I bought them in, however, they came with pebbles, which I promptly removed them as I know they aren’t safe for Axies.
One of them has a very swollen abdomen and is struggling to move around. Not floating but staying at the bottom of the tank. I’m very concerned.
Pictures below.
A guy at the local aquarium place said it could be either:
1. Pebbles
2. It’s nearly breading season and could be a female with eggs.
How can I tell? If it is option 1 what do I do?
Please help!
Thank you!
