Hi there, I have a paddle tail newt who is having some issues the vets are having a hard time figuring out. It started with red marks on her left front under arm like she was injured. I do not think she injured it though as it got better then transferred to the other front under arm, the red spot has since disappeared but her under arm has some skin abnormality . she is also getting spots that start black and then get white in the middle. she has not shed in quite some time which she used to do regularly. Her tank has a fluvial filter, a bubbler and the water is temp controlled. I do regular water changes. She eats regularly with no issues. She is a rescue newt and I have no idea how old she is as she was fully grown when I got her and I have had her for about 5 years. I have attached some pictures. I have been treating her for a bit now with antibiotics from the vet but they don't seem to be helping. The vets here are great but they unfourtunetly have never dealt with an animal like her so treating her has been difficult. any information that will help this little girl feel better would be amazing!!!!
