Came home today and found one of my axolotls dead in the tank. the other two seem to be fine. she was a white albino and typically her gills were a bright red.

yesterday i noticed that her gills were a very pale color (grayish white). i change half of the water in the tank weekly and spot clean the tank on an almost daily basis and i do have a filter.

any ideas what may have caused this and what i can do (if anything)?
 
Sorry to hear.

I hope your other axies are ok? Any signs of stress in them?

It is best to post a picture of your tank and describe the set up, tank mates, and list out the water chemistry... ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, ph and temperature. That would help to comment.

Cheers
David

    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?
