Help me!Tylototriton not eating!!!

[leonardo]

I found that one of my females has become quite "apatic"....even if she seems healthy and has no visible sign of stress or illness, she is a bit "plump" and she refuses to eat (she is normally a very voracious eater)...I'm very worried about his...
what can I do?
she is aquatic, and the temperature is of 19°C...the others newts are well and eat regularly...
hope you can help me
bye
Leo

Mine did this as a response to a foot infection. Have a look closely at the feet. The infection started as a slight pinkening of the feet and as it grew (salt baths did not stop it completely) the toes started to shrink. As well as looking 'plump' they went off food and became very agitated - darting wildly around the tank whenever I tried to feed them. Bi weekly water changes for a short time and myxazin treatment sorted it out.
Good luck
