I had this happen to one of my sg's a couple of months ago I took him to the vet and the vet said that he probably had very low blood sugar. The vet gave him some oxygen and some dextrose and he was fine. I paid the vet sixty dollars for some dextrose to take home, but all it is is sugar water. He said that it was probably his diet. I had been feeding him cat food, a mixture of nuts, and apple sauce. I have since switched to brisky's which has worked wonders, he has grown considerably and is definitely healthier. Also, if you have more than one sg one of the others may be eating all the food or not letting you sick one eat, look out for that. Hope its not to late.
