Hello! So I made a post with my concerns and a few people have told me it could be shedding, or possibly even respiratory problem, though I’m looking for more replies from people to get a general idea what it could be. I worry over everything but I just want to make sure he’s ok. If you know what it could be please tell me how I could help it. I’m taking him to the vet Wednesday to check on him, so here’s what’s wrong with him:
-Not being very active in his tank or in the house (though he started getting active when I took him outside — sometimes he’ll look like he’s sleeping, then get up and be active for like 1 minute then goes back to sleep)
-Won’t eat at all (he licked his food a bit but didn’t eat it
-It feels like he does a sort of hard gulp or something, maybe it’s hard breathing, and he does it often (he’s also made a little noise with it a few times)
-Most of his body is grey and dull, like seems thicker than normal scales
-His tail turned like a dark grey suddenly
-He has dark stress marks
-Sometimes he’ll scratch at the glass of his tank, though not often
-Recently he’s only been urinating, no poop
I did have improper lights but today I fixed it and bought better ones, what could be wrong?
I can answer more questions if needed and can even send some pics of his tank/him
