Hi I have had my lotl for 2 years now and he's had his off times of eating and always seems to bounce back. But this time I'm worried, I noticed he has a black spot on his lower lip and now has developed a red spot next to it and will not eat his food. Has anyone seen this before? If so can you please help me I'm VERY worried!
Sorry the image is upside down.
Thank you

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
