On Friday, I discovered a dead axoltl in my tank and another one that looked close too it. Right now I have four axolotls in a 55g and it seems that two of them have red leg. Im not fully sure what it is but it is red spots around their body. One (leusistic) has a lttle red bump on it with its legs almost completely covered in red spots. My other one (golden albino) has red marks around its mouth and its legs have a few little red marks. Ive been giving them both salt baths, not knowing what to do, and there hasnt been much improvement. I will try to get pictures tomorrow. Ive looked around and I cant find anything like this. Any help is appreciated :happy:
 
Update: The leusistic has died and the golden albino has been getting worse. Its gills have been turning a brownish colors. Ive decided to stop the salt baths because they dont seem to be helping at all and are just irritating to them. Another one of my axoltls has seemd to developed the same condidtion and looks very bloated. I don't think that it is red leg from what Ive seen but I really dont know. I really am worried about them :sad:
 
Another one has passed :(. If anyone has any idea what is happeijg please help Ive been stresses about it for a week.
 
It seems that the golden albino has gotten better on its own and is now in my 20g with another axolotl
