I am wondering if there is a genetic component that is completely out of my control? I will still look into the salinity aspect, though, as I am willing to try anything. I included a couple of pics I took tonight as he was feeding....you can see that it just looks off....
Yeah, from that angle it looks like a developmental malformation. They happen all the time in amphibians. If that is the case, as he absorbs his tail during metamorphosis it should go away.
