So I bought 2 axolotl's a week ago from petworld who was keeping them at 27 degress celcius!
So over the last week I've been slowly decreasing the temperature so I wouldn't stress them too much. And it is at about 20 now.
One of my biggest concerns is that they are VERY inactive. They will stay still in one cornor of the tank for atleast one hour before moving a bit. Is this really normal? Also when I feed them some small shrimps they totally ignore them. I HAVE to hand-feed them, or atleast drop the food down on their heads. If I drop the food a little off and I lands 2 cm away from their head they will ignore it. Is this normal?
And my axolot's seem to have blue spots on their heads and gills. Is this normal?
I am also a little concerned about my grain. Does it impose any risk to my axolotl's?
Also if you have any enquries or suggestions about my setup please feel free to say so.
In all the pictures taken of the axolot's they aren't moving. They have been in that exact position for atleast 30 minutes.
