Hi everyone

any help with measurements and how often to do it and if i should fridge also would be greatly appreciated

The very first thread on the sick axolotl forum is a wonderful, detailed guide on how to do a salt bath. It's been stickied so it will always remain at the top.

Yes I did have a read of it but just got a little confused because I read so many different measurements for the solution used so was unsure on what method was best
But I appreciate your reply very much

Is it big or still pretty small? If unsure, do a little bit less that way it won't be too irritating but will still help with the fungus. You just might have to do it a little longer if you use less.

Do you know why it has fungus ? Is it the result of an injury ?
