Hi friends,
My axolotl and I are having a tough time, and I don't know how to help him.
He hasn't pooped in over a week. He's been floating hunched, sideways, and sometimes rolls upside down. His tail is curled. He does move every so often, spastically twitching. He did eat two fresh earthworms last Saturday. I fridged him for two days and currently am just tubbing him in low water. I've attached a couple pictures.
Please let me know if you can offer any guidance.
Tank parameters (20gallons)
-I use the Tetra Whisper 10filter, and the flow is angled toward the side of the tank.
-I started the last cycle on 5/21/21 when I came home from college.
-pH: 5.8 (Seachem Alert Series)---It was at 7.0 until this evening when I tried to put him back in.
-Ammonia: <.02 ppm (Seachem Alert Series)
-There is no substrate, no tankmates/plants/rocks/small objects that he could have swallowed.
