When using a lamp be sure to purchase one that has a dimmer swithch so you can accurately control the amount of light and heat being produced by the bulb. I use lamps and have the entire time. Mist the enclosure as needed for spikes in humidity and to moisten the soil. Not feeding superworms and meal worms is great advice as the chitin that their exoskeleton is made from is difficult for the frogs to digest and can cause impaction. The bite of the superworm is bad and has in very rare occations the superworms have been known to chew through the stomach of the frog. Always smash the heads of the superworm before giving it to the frog. As was said above they are to be given as a treat not a staple. Night crawlers are an excellent staple. Crickets are good as long as you gut load them and dust them appropriately. Don't let anyone say lamps are bad because of used apprpriately there is no issue to be had. As for the UTH it should be placed on the side of the tank opposite the side with the water dish so the frog has a temp gradient and can decide whether it wants to be warm or cool. When using a lamp in combination with a UTH place the lamp over the center of the enclosure. Provide a fake plant or two for cover. And cover 3 sides of your frogs tank with some sort of background so he/she feels more secure. Makes sure you use de-chlorinated water. the frog will become ill and die if exsposed to the chemicals in tap water. Please note that boiling does not remove all chemicals and heavy metals from the water so be sure to buy a water conditioner to treat and de-chlorinate the water.

Congrats on your new little Pac. He/she is very cute. Read the care article as MeTree has said take the advice given and don't hesitate to ask questions. Welcome to the forum.
I said never use a "heat" lamp, not a normal 25-50 watt lamp. I use a 11 watt CFL for my pac, and it actually throws a bit of heat.
