Hi guys,
My melanoid juvie axolotl has started to show some strange behaviour, he's spending a lot of time floating by the surface tilting on his side with his left arm and leg sticking right out of the water! He'll stay like this for ages, completely still, then every now and then go a little crazy and start swimming around quite quickly. Can anyone help? My water parameters are normal and the water is at 19c... I've put him in a tank away from my other axolotl, and lowered his water level (I usually have it quite high because my other one likes to swim around) for now as I'm worried he might end up stressing the other one out or passing something on. He's eating and seems to be pooping normally too. I've only had him for six weeks or so... please can anyone help?? I'm worried sick
