My friend got a young axolotl a month ago, he’s alone in a 60L tank, bare bottom with a hide. He got a water change 2 weeks ago and gets shrimp everyday, I’m not too sure about the parameters; they used the filter from their other axolotl’s tank to cycle and prepare the tank for this one. He was fine up until few days ago when we noticed the fungus on him, gave him salt baths for 3 days which didn’t seem to help and made the sores on his body worse so he has been in a tea bath for a few hours now.
We tried offering him bloodworms which he refused.
The owner has been too afraid to google or ask for help in fear of being told they’re losing him after waiting so long to get him and I have very little knowledge on axolotls but have been trying my best but I’m scared what I’ve been reading and being told isn’t working so I’m hoping someone has advice.
I have read indian almond leaves help but it would take days if not weeks for it to arrive here, sadly.. and no fish medicine has been used on him.
