My iredalei, Dylan, seems to be sick.
He's almost gone into slow motion. When he isn't retracted he barely moves, even if i spray him (which usually makes him jump back in to his shell) he just takes ages to pull his eye stalks in.
He has been trying to eat and I've moved him into a smaller tank on his own with food and more heat.
The Fulica he was in with is fine. This has just hapened in the last day or so.
Couple of factors:
1) My boyfreind's iredalei died of something seemingly unrelated during the week, I brougt my iredalei over to him to take care of (!) So he's in a different place
2)He's got very dodgy shell growth and both of the iredalei obviously had/have genetic problems.
Any light to be shed would be great. Thanks
