I just noticed today that one of my Marbles is looking a bit skinny and her tail is looking really skinny, her color is also dull and she's a little lethargic at this point. My other (which is in the same tank) is perfectly fine and looking healthy. I have had them about a year, fed them a week ago, their soil is still moist and there tank is in the low 70s right now. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I would recommend separating the two and verifying that the skinny one is actually eating. If you are feeding crickets, the healthier one may be eating them all. Separation is also a good idea in case the skinny one is actually ill.
