Had my axolotl about 2 weeks now. Tank is still cycling so I'm doing daily water changes of between 20 and 50% to keep the nitrite level below 1ppm (ammonia is always 0).
Doris has been pretty stressed throughout with his/her gills always pointing forward as you see in this picture, and occasionally swimming around the tank in a fairly crazy fashion, although he/she's been doing this a lot less recently.
I'm also a little worried about some white spots on his/her body - you can see them in this photo, above the back leg. Is this something else I should be concerned about? It's not fuzzy like some of the fungus pics I've seen on this website but it doesn't look the same as her natural colouring.

sorry for blurriness, my phone is on it's very last legs
