Hello everyone.
I have an axolotl that is about 3 years old now and has recently become sick. He has small bumps all over his body that are white/Grey and a few turn red and I have seen one bleed. He also has a section on his gill stalk that turned red as well as a couple of reddish patches on his tail and a large white patch under his jaw. I'm unsure of what this is exactly, I have refrigerated him for a week with no change and I have given him a round of Furan-2 and still no noticeable change. If anyone has any ideas as to what it is that is affecting him and potential ways to help him it would be much appreciated. I have attached a couple of pictures. Water temperature of the tank is 60~62 F. Water parameters are good. He hasn't ate in about 2 weeks now.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
