i have 2 axies and recently they have both stopped eating and lost so much weight plus turned much darker in colour i have checked all the paremeters they are fine and i clean the tank reguarly there is no gravel at all in the tank due to past issues i have just put both the boys in the fridge but im not holding my breath because of how quick they became sick has any one got a clue as to what may be happening ???

im not sure as to the age of the boys both were bought from different pet shops and neither has grown

im worried they are suffering

please help
 
Hi
Do you have any pics of your axolotls?
What are your exact parameters? and temp?
What do you feed them and how often? and how big are your axolotls?
How big is your tank?

Sorry for all the questions but they will help to try and figure out what is going on

Mel.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
