Thanks for reaching out about Pearl. Amphibian husbandry can be tricky. Measuring other water parameters is important (pH, ammonia, nitrates) and water must be clean. Try offering different types of foods: invertebrates, fish, pellets. If problems continue, a visit to a veterinarian with experience with exotics might be needed. Good luck.
