Hello, this is an incredibly embarrassing question, but is it possible for my axolotl to give me a disease? I was cleaning my tank with my gavel vacuum and was sucking air in to get it started (I don't have one of those newfangled ones where you don't have to risk your health) and I accidentally got some in my mouth. I spat it out as quickly as I could and finished cleaning my tank, then rinsed my mouth out with mouthwash.
There was no poo in the tank, and I cleaned it pretty recently before this (Like 2-4 days, I can't remember). My axie is in a little quarantine tank (5 gallons, his usual tank is 20 gallons), which has a bare bottom, because he has a little spot of fungus on his gill (I think it's getting better, and regardless he is still eating and active).
Am I going to get stomach fungus or salmonella or something?
I'm new to this, I'm sorry to have to ask. Thanks for your time!
