Hi, My axolotls really bloated, she just keeps floating upside down, and ive tried lowering the water level, salt bathing and putting her in the fridge for 2 days, nothing seems to be working. I just got in from work and have noticed her genital area looks all red and bloody like its a blood blister, shes in a empty tank at moment so nothing could of caused this, any help on what to do? some people have told me to just put her out her misery

Water parameters? It's not a good idea to salt bath unless you have confirmed fungus. Sounds like she's got something wrong with her tank water chemistry, put her in a container with cool, clean, dechlorinated water and put it on the ground where you won't walk on her, make sure she's cold/under 20*C.

Is she eating at all?

Tea bath is better than salt bath... salt is usually only for fungus. But like fidget said, keep her cold and check parameters
