Thank you for all of your help. I separated the two of them and got a new tank for the fat tail. I put a heater on the bottom and am using a heat lamp. I also put a container in there that has wet paper towels. He seems to like it better so far. I have been feeding them both crickets but I never see them eat. I do know the crickets are gone though. I read that you should keep the crickets separate and just feed them a couple at a time. I have also been feeding them mashed banana mixed with the calcium and vitamin and a little bit of honey. I have included photos. Also I believe that the stuff that I was told was sand on his feet was really his shed and I managed to get that off. Now he has shed again and it seems that he has a problem getting it off of his feet. Please let me know what you think of the photos and thanks again for all of the advice.
