My axolotl has been hanging around the top of the tank with her eyes submerged and has been going up for air very 1 minute and i don't know whats wrong please help
She hasn't touched the ground in around 4 hours
Shes been floating for the past few days but only recently has it gotten worse.
ive tried lowing the water level so that my filter breaks the surface of the water
She also hasn't been eating the past 2 weeks :(

Is it having difficulties submerging or is it floating by choice ? What's the temp ? Some pics would be good.

Can you specify how old you axie is? Also have you placed your axolotl into a sick tub?

If you continue to let your axie float, it will stress them out.
