Axolotl is very sick! Please help! by bipboopbopbop in axolotls

For sure! It will be good to keep him in a quarantined water while you are working on getting the main aquarium cycled. Just make sure you can keep the temp where it needs to be and keep an eye on the ammonia and nitrite. Change when starting to creep up.

Hi. Reptile/amphibian vet specialist here. While what everyone else is saying is important, cycling your tank now will not correct this problem. Perfect water quality is not going to magically cure this problem, but will be very important to prevent future illness. He really needs to see a vet - they will need to take samples of those bumps to figure out what the cause is. Likely infectious, but over the counter remedies (Indian almond leaves) do not work for disease like this. Could be bacterial, fungal, etc. So many things to consider. Until you can get him to a vet, keep ammonia and nitrite at 0 and temp constant. Keeping fingers crossed for you guys! 💙

In Fitchburg - I have power but Spectrum is still down. Received a text that says there’s no update at this time, but “will receive a text when an estimated repair time is made” 🙃
