Lisa, without having them sexed it really is hard to say. I suspect the larger one is male, and not eating because it has breeding on its mind. Keep them separated until sexed. In fact, I would keep them separated regardless. As mentioned, regardless if the smaller one is a male, or a female not ready to breed, the stress from the big one could cause health problems.
