I’m fairly new to owning and caring for Axolotls, but I’ve been having a lot of trouble with my little juvenile. I got her from the pet store a couple weeks ago, and she’s been on her back off and on since. She doesn’t always float on her back, sometimes she just lays on the bottom of the tank in her back. When she has these episodes, she darts around the tank occasionally. Water changes sometimes seem to help but currently it hasn’t. She also seems to have trouble eating and is a bit skinny. I feel like she doesn’t open her mouth enough when she tried to bite her food.. if that makes sense.
I’m not sure how old she is, but she’s got all 4 legs and she’s about 2 inches long. Water chem levels are fine. Diet is black worms/ frozen blood worms. Temp is mid- high 60s F. No substrate in tank, two hides. I currently have her in a smaller dish so i can keep the water shallow to help her stay on her belly.
Any advice on how to get my sweet baby back to being happy and healthy would be greatly appreciated!
