Hi,
I'm new here. I've had 2 axolotls for 31/2 years and before Xmas I discovered the tank full of eggs. My son insisted I save them from being eaten and as a result, 3 full on months later I have 13 little mouths to feed. I successfully raised baby brine shrimp to get them through the first few months and now they are ferociously eating frozen blood worms like their parents.
On and off over this time we have had some bubbles in their tummies. I pop them in the fridge for a few days and they resolve. However, over the last few weeks it seems all but 2 of them have bubbles. I live in Sydney and it has been in the high 20's most days for the last several weeks. Could the heat be giving them gas bubble disease? I have put the whole tray in the fridge for a couple of days at a time but then they don't eat. Should I just leave it in their indefinitely?
I do a full water change every day and feed them once a day. They are all pooping regularly.
Here is a little vid I did at todays feed time. They will eat those worms within about 15 minutes.

Thanks in advance for any help.
