Hey guys, i think my axolotl has fungus? he hasn't eaten in 6 days, and is pretty lethargic, I've noticed a white fluffy almost mucousy ball on his gills?? anyone know if this is fungus? and should i fridge him? i don't want to salt bathe him if he's not sick, I'm a new owner and would hate for anything to happen, thanks in advance guys, xx

theres no ammonia, no nitrite and no nitrate, his ph is around 7.2 i was in the middle of cycling his tank however i think it may have finished because there is no problems with the parameters,

    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?
