I'm so sorry! [emoji3525] If he is not reactive at all to touch and is limp, he likely has passed. That little thing on him looks like a molt sac to me, which hermits get before they molt.

Do you have gauges in the tank to measure temperature and humidity? If so, where are they located, and what temperature and hum...
