Hello,

A picture would be very helpful. Has he been injured?
Are you using a UVB light also?
Are you using calcium regularly too?

Hello,

Oh I am sorry to hear he has been put down. :cry:
They put him down because he had metabolic bone disease? Had he begun to improve?

I am sorry for your loss.

No they put him down because the jaw would not recover and he would have just starved.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
