Okay so my axolotls are tubbing (separately) while their tank is recycling. We are almost 3 weeks in and they were doing fine but now I am worried. There was a clear/white slime all over everything in the tubs so I got all new stuff and I’m scrubbing it clean daily when I do water changes. My Lucy looked to have a fungus but I believe it has gone away. My Mel has never had this issue but the past 2 days his gills have seemed red and tonight I completely cleaned the tubs and let them take a 100% black tea bath (separately) for 10 mins which I have done before and never had an issue. Well about 30 mins after my melanoid threw up all his food and has whitish slime looking stuff all around his neck (pictured below). Is it possible it’s not fungus but excess slime coat or protein from food? Did he throw up because he’s sick or could I have over fed him? I have new IAL’s and the API pimafix coming in this week. Their gills don’t seem to be curled too much and their tails are straight.
Please help!!
