My turtle is about 6 months old and just recently stopped eating. He gags a lot underwater and always wants to stay near the surface of the water where it meets land. He is about 1 inch long in a 10 gallon aquarium with about 7 gallons of water. Is this a respiratory problem? I keep the water temp at about 80-85 degrees most of the time. At night it usually cools down to about 76-78 or so. Thank you
