Growth or Regeneration Issue?

[legolasthelotl]

Hello,

I have noticed a white growth on my axolotl's foot that has slowly gotten bigger. It is not fluffy but I am still unsure whether it is fungus or not. His behaviour is fine and he is eating and pooping on a normal basis. He still uses the foot to move around as well.

When I got him the other axotols that he was housed with bit off all of his legs, however it has been a few months and he has grown them back. Is this a regeneration issue? Should I put him in a tea/salt bath?

Any advice appreciated

I am sorry that I am not going to give you the kind of answer that you wanted but you schould never take veterinary advice from people that aren't vetinarians. Instead you schould go to a exotic vetinarian.

I don't live in an area where exotic vets are easy to come by.

Well than you should take the risk. I personally do not know. I have never had an axolotl before.

Sorry if this comes off rude, but if you aren't experienced in axolotls why did you respond? Haha.

No it is not rude. But the reason that I responded is because I almost treat one of my pets with the wrong treatment because of a similar situation. But I understand that you where wondering about my response.

I hope that you eventaully find someone that does know about it and it turns out that it is nothing to worry about.
