Hi everyone,
I’m a beginner owner. I’ve had my ~2.5 inch axolotl for five days. She is usually very active, swimming laps. I changed some of her water this morning, which maybe spooked her a little. But she seemed fine after and ate lots of blood worms I gave her. But immediately after eating the bloodworms, instead of swimming around like usual, she’s just been floating near the surface, not moving much. It’s been a few hours and she is still acting very still. Only swimming for a little before resting for a long time. This is a 10 gallon tank with no filter and I change about half the water every day. I have not had any readings of ammonia higher than 0.25 before a water change. The temperature is 64. Is my little one okay?
