I have used my last option today,
I have 3 axolotls 1 male and 2 female living in the one tank.
The 2 females seam to be as healthy as can be, they eat, swim and do everything a normal axolotl does...
But my male is a little "odd", he wont eat, likes to float and spend time out of the water...
So after about 3 months of not eating much and a growing fear that he will soon become the females dinner i have removed him from the main tank to a smaller tank.
He last ate about a week ago and is about 10cm long and very thin (the female's are almost double his size)
Do you think that the cause maybe caused by sharing a tank with the females?
He has fathered one lot of eggs with 1 of the females but nothing has happened since then?
Also i set his new tank up so he can get out of the water if he wants, he seams to love being out and i'm worried that he will change... because i dont think he is the type that does???
