1 month old axolotls

[Chefwarrior]

Hi everyone. I have about 15 axolotles that are starting to grow their front legs. They ate yesterday and today I changed their water and separated them from the smaller ones. Never had a problem changing water.

Now I have 3 that are swimming, lunging, but will turn upside down... Then repeat.

I have 1 that swims in circles like it's a dog catching it's tail.

I'm concerned... What do you think is happening? Thanks

It's normal to have genetically weak individuals in a large bunch like amphibians lay. In the wild, they would be eaten by others. It's the way of nature.
