Axolotl Scraped Cloaca!

[jeromeetabuzo]

So one of my axies had a red mark which is scratches on its cloaca and i also seen it hiding inside the sponge filter , and would sometimes stay in his cave , so will the scratches be cured?? i cant post a pic , i cant hold an axie and camera with 2 hands, i might fall the camera in the tank , so can anyone help me?? Cloaca has red scratch mark , and also how to cure it fast any advice will be followed and appreciated .

With scrapes, I usually do an initial salt bath to kill off any possible fungus or bacteria.

And then just keep a close eye on it.
If you see fungus starting to grow, do more regular salt baths.

I wouldn't start handling the axie for a photo, that could stress him out and won't help healing.
