Why is my axolotl sleeping so much and not eating?

[SunnyFlowrr]

My axolotl hasn't been eating for the past almost a week. Every time we trie to feed him he is sleeping (motionless, unaware of surroundings), yesterday when I tried to give him some food he jumped at it a bit but then went back to sleeping. How do I get him to eat more?

Hi, what are your water parameters? Ammonia, nitrite, ph, nitrate. What water conditioner do you use? What’s the current tank temp?

feed at night time as they are mostly nocturnal, put the food in over night and clean any remnants the following day.

If you're not feeding him at night already like wolfen suggested, then do so. If you are and he is still having trouble, you might need to consider force feeding. I hope your axolotl is ok.
