Rep: kaliyahchanel is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Is there something wrong with my axolotl?
I got my axolotl back in May and he was doing great. But, I’ve noticed that he has small black bumps on his feet, he’s an albino and about 8-9 inches long. What could this mean and is it serious? I do 20% water changes every week and take out poop or anything once I see it. The only things in the tank are sand (which is very fine) a few plants and a tiny ghost shrimp I got in September. I feed him a baby cricket every other day, but he has also been throwing that up. The only sign of stress I can see on him is a curved tail, but his gills aren’t curved forward. The parameters are good as well. I NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE.
