Hello, im new to here and ive had my axie for about 10 months. Anyways its the summer now and the water temp. in my temp got a bit too hot and now it seem that my axie has some fungus on its gill. Im already taking measures to lowering the temperature in the tank but im afraid of doing anything wrong to help my axie. I read online that i should prepare a salt bath(wich im already doing) and try fridgin but im afraid ill just worsen the situation. I really need help caus i dont want to lose him ive grown quite fond of him and it would break my hurt to see him leave me

Hi, there's no need to fridge or do salt baths for fungus, steep a plain black teabag in boiling water until it cools, pour the tea water into a tub that has cold dechlorinated water, leave your lotl in the the tea bath for 15 minutes, 3 times a day.
Have fans angled at the tanks surface water, that will cool it down a fair bit.

With fungus it's definitely recommended that you do use salt baths. Tea baths are for damaged slime coats I believe, but I've never used them before. No need to fridge though. Here is the salt bath guide: https://www.caudata.org/forum/showthread.php?t=72698

Tea baths are recommended more for fungus then salt baths, it works well for fungus
Where did you hear that? Every post I've seen here has always recommended salt baths.
