found my wildtype axolotl (13+ years old) floating upside down and very bloated, ph is 7.4, no ammonia, consistent 17c temp.
I've started fridging her about 24 hours ago and no improvement.
I tried keeping the water level low so she couldn't flip upside down while fridging but she will always flip.
she is bloated on her belly and on her hind legs, there is also some discharge coming from her butt.
her two other tank mates look and are acting fine.
I did post this on the axolotl subreddit before https://www.reddit.com/r/axolotls/comments/bpkxc9/help_found_axolotl_floating_upside_down_need_help/
and did post pictures https://imgur.com/a/SN7Zbxx
any advice or help is much appreciated
