That is a very large cage you have. Are your two dragons full adults or babies? Two babies would be lost in a cage that big. I would separate the smaller one, that you are having problems with into a 20 gal tank or similar, with all the proper lighting and heating. Use papertowel for substrate for now. As others mentioned, use a probiotic to help restore beneficial gut flora. If you can't find any or are in a pinch, use some non fat/sugar free fruit yogurt and offer him that. Most dragons will just lick it off your finger or a spoon.
Some gateraid can help as well, especially if your dragon is getting dehyrated from not eating or drinking at all.
Offer some choicer food morsals, bananas, peach, silkworms (of the appropriate size, about 1.5 x the space between the dragon's eyes, though for larger dragons, they can handle full sized silkworms that break this rule, due to their soft bodies. Waxworms and freshly molted superworms can be offered as well.
