I just noticed my little red ear slider is gulping.

He sits on his rock most of the day, doesn't go in the water unless I or my fiance puts him in there...and he doesn't move much...

he doesn't appear to have any energy, and I'm getting really worried

We think there may be a digestive problem, as he doesn't appear to eat much...and I have to admit we aren't feeding him a varied diet...

Help!

do you mean he's gasping for air? are his eyes swollen? if they are, than he has respiratory infection, which is very serious...he needs a vet.
