Hi, I'm very worried, I changed the water after separating my axolotls that I've had for around 5 months, my golden boy is separated due to an injury, he is healing quite nicely, but when I changed the water and tested it's ph before I placed my black girl back in , she begun to get a white film over her last night, I held her (I know that's bad) over the bubbles and the white film or gunk came off but has came up with small pimply dots all overher body, is it a parasite , is the the water, I really don't want to lose her, so I'm open any suggestions , really worried about my girl , she is her usual alert, hungry self (she eats and eats earthworms from my garden ) but I don't over feed her, the photos don't really bring up the bumps but you can get an idea

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
