Hello everyone! I have been having trouble with my axies health. finally found a vet that would answer. she decided to do some laboratory tests of their skin, mouth and blood. and see what can be found.

but it is difficult to find some reference values. what is normal. and what isn't.

which microflora is normal. in what quantity is normal and in wich could be harmfull.

so far we haven't found literature about it.

if anyone could help, I would appreciate a lot. and hopefully get together information that could be useful for everyone

cheers!

    It’s very dry in Colorado. I make sure to spritz every night so while I’m sleeping. I have a nifty hydrometer that I got from Walmart. It tells me blue, green, red; too little humid, good, too much respectively. It’s been helpful to me.

    Hey y'all, recently my juvenile axolotl's tail has been floating and can swim down but his tail lifts to an angle and I believe that it is stressing him out. He gets in between his plants to balance himself and I am cleaning out the bottom of the tank with my baster. I believe I overfed him and he also may have eaten many air bubbles. He's been like this for nearly 1 1/2 days.
