Theres a more detailed post in the general discussion section but i needed to fast advice.
Basically i have 2 baby axies with fungus, salt baths twice a day or just once?
Also same strength as for an adult or make it weaker?

Any help at all would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.
 
We think they are around 3 months though can't be completely sure just under 2 inches I'd say.
 
So far when I've seen fungus on my axolotls, I dose the tank properly with aquarium salt rather than removing them from the tank. I've had luck with this so far where the fungus is gone in 1-2 days with minimal damage to where it was.
 
For that size I'd do once a day and at a lower dose, but that's just me :)
 
I've been doing a very low dose twice a day and for about 7 minutes instead of the 15 minutes for an adult. should i just leave them in the full 15 once a day then?

Adding salt to the aquarium is a good idea but i have 2 in the same tank and i've been told to avoid salt bathing them until there's actually fungus there as it damages their skin, so i don't want to risk one to save the other.
