KerfuffleFace:i think if theres any time for fridging your situation might be it, but i know fringing in general is quite controversial - i might suggest putting up a full post and letting some of the heavyweights weigh in+1

Val_the_axolotl_:Okay so heres the full story: So i walked into my room a few days ago(Four-ish?) and I noticed that one of the axolotl babies had a very empty and bloated stomach, and so i thought to myseld 'maybe he didn't get enough food last night' so i feed him, and he doesn't eat anything, just swims away. this keeps happening every day, and i grow increasingly worried. I have started to think that maybe he has swallowed a bubble and now can't get it out. Yesterday, I realize that he does have some food in him, but it is stuck in front of the bubble. Sadly, the fridging didn't help, and he is still bloated. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.+1

Val_the_axolotl_:@Pookisoo, I don't have any experience with salamanders, but axolotls are similar, and i heard when an axolotl won't eat, gently open its mouth with a spatula and feed it+1
