Hi All,
I am a first time poster here but long time reader and viewer. To get right into it, I came home this evening to find that my wild type female had died at some point between 4M and 11M. I last saw her around 4M and she appeared to be alert and active and readily ate some earthworm pieces that I tossed in there.
I really am at a lost over this as I have no idea what would have caused such a sudden death. My male Axolotl of the same age and from the same tank appears perfectly healthy. Both Axolotls are almost two years of age and have never shown any signs of illness.
I noticed last night that she appeared a little bloated but I assumed she was getting ready to drop some eggs. When I found her this evening she appeared very bloated.
I would really appreciate any thoughts, concerns, or insight that might explain why she died so suddenly with out outwardly showing any signs of illness or disease.
Sincerely, Scott Wahlberg
