When I came home tonight I found my axolotl floating upsidedown in his tank. I immediately assumed the worst and got a net to fish him out. However he immediately flipped out and darted to the bottom of the tank when touched but he immediately rose to the top again. I'm 95% sure I have it figured out but would still like some other options on it.

I've been fallowing the directions given on these sites-

Sorry, Kid.....can't help....never encountered it before. My 1st thought would be to use a small needle and aspirate it, but that's best left to a trained VMD or someone who's at least done it before
