You might have seen the pic of my new axolotl in a recent post, and now it seems I have a problem.
My original axy is a male, is always super-active and always playful. The new one, a female, is slightly smaller and much quieter - she spends a lot of time just sitting around, like you'd normally expect axies to do.
I've had her for just a few days and already she's missing half of two gill feathers. Is this behaviour normal when introducing two axies or is my male abnormally aggressive? Should I remove her from the tank, or will they settle down eventually? I hate seeing her get hurt, though I know they should grow back.
