I got my baby axolotl about 3 months ago and it has been doing great up until the last couple of weeks. It looks skinny, has a dark brown outline around its tail, and its tail is curled at the end (I have read this is a sign of stress). I feed it blood worms every other day and it eats every last one. I also do water changes ever week/ every other week. It has gotten hotter here but not hot enough for the water to get too hot. If anyone has an idea of what the problem is please let me know.

    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?
