My Axolotl, Kirby, is about a month and a half old. he has been very active and doesn’t seem to look sick at all, but ive recently noticed that on the tip of his gill it’s turned white!! it doesnt look like fungus to me, just look like the tip of the gill has faded of any color, and it seems to kind of fall over like its almost dead. iq turned on my lights to try and get a better picture. please help me figure this out i dont want anything bad happening to him :(

because your axolotl is white it means that any small body part where there is a limited blood flow will also look white, this is due to their skin being semi-translucent, it is always a good idea to be aware of any fungal issues as the gill tips tend to be most susceptible.
