Over the last few days, one of my axolotls has started to develop these white patches on their tail fin and I'm not quite sure what it is. The axolotl in question hasn't changed its eating habits and is still very active so I'm not sure what it is/if there is something that I should be doing for this.

Any advice is appreciated!

Looks like iridophores to me :)
Shine a light on them, if they are shiny there’s nothing wrong, they are meant to be there :)
Cute baby too

Thank you so much for your reply! I was really worried for a second there. Also, they are super cute! :D
