    Default Paceman staying in water bowl

    I have a 10 month old Pacman and he has been doing great since we got him. He eats regularly, sometimes is buried, he moves spots every week or so but for the last week he hasn't moved from his water bowl. Nothing has changed as far as temps and humidity and substrate moisture. He still eats like a pig. Any idea why he is staying in the water bowl?

    6 months, that's way to long. Hes probably in the dish because his substrate is saturated in urine. These frogs produce a lot of waste, the longest I would recommend going without changing and cleaning his enclosure is a month. I used to do every month but now do every 3 weeks for mine. Give him some nice new clean substrate and I almost guarantee you he comes out of the water and goes and buries himself.
