What I can feed my Pacman?

[Kurt]

I wouldn't keep a pac-man (or any other frog for that matter) on gravel. It can be accidentally swallowed and can lead to gastric impaction, a condition that can lead to death.

Are you a member of the Pacific Northwest Herpetelogical Society? And if so do you know a Sarah Hodges (or Staples)?

Cooked shrimp (the kind you buy frozen in the super market) is just fine but I don't recommend it as a staple food simply because it's not something they would eat very often in the wild, plus the shrimp sold in super markets is marine shrimp, something these frogs would never come into contact with in the wild. I highly recommend nightcrawlers as a staple for large sedentary frogs like Pacman frogs and Pyxie frogs. An occasional frozen mouse is fine too (but again, shouldn't be the staple).

Well i would be doing crickets as a staple but my beardies eat a ton of them as it is. What are night crawlers? And thanx for the info on the mini shrimps.

I'm not a big fan of crickets because you need to gutload them for them to be of any value. Nightcrawlers are the large earthworms sold as catfish bait. Not the red-ringed smaller species that are sold as compost earthworms.

Yes im a member and no i dont know that person. i am already aware of the gravel thing and thats why only a small portion of his tank has gravel in it, He alsmot never goes over there so im not worried about it, He would rather be on the moist paper towels hidin in his dish or something so the rocks or more for looks.

She was an old friend of mine that I have lost contact with. She went by the handle of Fr0glet. There are two pics of her on the PNHS web site. She is wearing a blue shirt with a gecko on it. I guess she has moved on.

Its ok. Thanks anyway.

[jody]

yeah, id remove the gravel. the larger stones are fine. I use glass "stones" they look nice lots of colors, and clean easily. I throw the broken or chipped ones into the fish bowl. I use gut loaded crickets and also dusted crickets twice a week. they love the night crawlers. and feeder gold fish. I cant feed mice. im a baby about that.

[jody]

are the tank sides painted? pretty setup.
