Mine were like that when i came back from 2 weeks away, Chris had forgot to spray alot of the tanks for the whole time i was gone they got regular baths when i got back and are now back to their normal piggish selfs.

give them a good bath and sit them on food and next to the cuttle or try putting some water gel christals in they are meant for reptiles but mine love it and there is no water as such so the babies can glide through it without drowning.

I get mine off ebay you only need a tiny bit it swells loads its good for if you are going away for a few days if they get a bit dry they go and sit in it. I just top them up with water every few days
