he is eating,swimming,basking,etc...perfectly fine..

I suppose you're following a very similar recent thread in this section. Most of the advice seems to be indicating that, if you're not sure, you'd better get your guy to a vet.

ok thanks!
but do you know if they become lethargic and refuse food?
because my little guy is as active as ever.
he eats,basks,swims.

Someone smarter than I will have to respond to that.

Reptiles can hide symptoms sometimes until it's too late. Do not wait until he stops eating or gets lethargic. Get him to a vet as soon as you can.
