Ever since I brought my axolotl with me to my apartment for college, we're struggling to keep the heat down. Meaning I'll come home from class and see his water temperatures are reaching over 75 Fahrenheit!! I've tried other spots in the apartment but nothing is working and I'd rather him not live in a refrigerator lol.
The other issue I'm having is that I recently switched over from large rocks to sand. But not too long with the new substrate he started eating loads of sand. I didn't have the proper materials to feed him at the time so I knew he was hungry. So he became bloated for the past couple days. He looks fine now, but everytime I try to feed him, he just turns away. Should I keep trying until he eats? Is this an illness? Could it be the temperatures too?
Please give me any suggestions you may have. I'd rather have my axolotl live...
