Should I turn down the temp a degree or two? They havent been touched for a few months and this is the first time hes shown no interest in food/tried the escaping..

I have only heard the wheeze/hiss when I am holding him.. I havent really listened to him when he has been laying flat. I will bring him onto my bed and listen to him in silence for a while to see if I notice it.

Update:
I went to grab him to set him on my bed for a bit and as soon as I reached to grab him, he made the noise. I am starting to think it may be a hiss just because of the timing of it.. and I havent heard any cracking or popping when hes breathing.. would a RI be easy to spot.. like obvious thats what it is?

Also I turned down the hotside two degrees, my temp gun read 92

I use dish soap on bowls, but rinse really thoroughly. I use F10SC to disinfect, bowls, tank, etc.

I would not use dish soap on tub. I would definitely use F10SC - totally safe for him and will actually disinfect.
