Sorry to post this here, but the AFT forums looking pretty dead, and Leos and AFTs are pretty similar, so maybe you guys can help us out.

Basically my AFT's not eating half as much as he used to and seems to be sleeping a lot more, I thought he was getting ready to shed as he's gone dull, but he's not using his humid hide. He's been pretty lethargic for about 2-3 weeks now. He just sleeps in his hot hide all the time. He's still pooping fine though, which I guess is good. I'd moved him into a new 22gal tank about 2 months ago , but it's only slighty larger than his old one so I doubt it's a major factor.

He sometimes slows down in winter anyway, but this is the most drastic I'v seen it, he normaly still eats and moves quite a lot. Am I just worried about nothing? If I raise the temps will he be more active? Should I bother, or is it just normal? I'd try him with different foods, but he's only ever eaten crickets as long as I'v had him, utterly ignores everything else.

He has 3 hides and some plants to hide in, his temps are about 91 on the hot side and 78 on the cool, and a 13 hour daytime light cycle.
