I was having issues with my filter and this caused a lot of ¿bacteria? to spread throughout the tank and the water would be milky every time I did a water change. I ended up buying a new filter and taking my axolotl out of the tank while I did a 80% water change and put the new filter in. I left it about 2 hours before putting my axolotl back in, but I wish I waited longer as he hasn’t been right since. He isn’t as active and he doesn’t come to the front of the tank like he used to- he enjoyed seeing people now he just doesn’t care. His gills are shorter than normal (they were already short since another axolotl apparently “ate” them in the pet shop before we bought him). He’s refusing to eat, but I only fed him a few days ago so I’m not as worried about that for now. I’m not sure if he’s sick or there’s something wrong with the water or maybe I’m just being paranoid.
I’m not sure if this made any sense but I’m really worried he’s going to die as he’s normally a very active lil guy.
