Hello, my axolotl has a white stringy like substance coming out where he poops. He has been recently moved to a new aquarium and I recently changed his diet to worms also. His water parameters have been good and I’ve been doing weekly water changes. He is still eating and he just pooped this week. I read it could be mucus from impaction. Should I be worried and take action or is this a thing that can happen time to time. Please, any advice would help. Thanks in advance.

Hello, there's nothing to worry about, this is a sperm cone...he is definitely a he. They have a cloaca like chickens were they pee, poop, reproduce and lay eggs from :)

i've never seen a spermatophore in person, but from the pictures i've seen online i'm inclined to think that they're usually better formed? this one seems a bit broken up.
