    Thank you for your reply!

    So the red light is okay, thats good to hear. And I do have a heating pad on the side of the cage.
    Like I said, only a forth of it is on the cage though. Because I have the light and the tank heater, I didnt want the little cage getting to hot.
    So I put the tank heater a forth of the way on the side. ( let me know if you want a picture of his cage, it would only take a couple of minutes to do, I dont mind)

    So even though its humid enough I should still have some kind of water bowl? I know they love sitting in the water for days ( my otheres did), but I figured its so small, I didnt want any chance of it going in a bowl and not being able to get out. But you had a good idea, ill use a small cap or somthing for now.
    I was thinking the same thing about the moss, but I couldnt think of any other way to get his humidity up to 50. But since ill be using a waterbowl now, that should help.
    If not, ill keep it in but be sure he doesnt go close to it. Hes on the opposite side of it, so he should be fine because ill be sure im right there to watch him eat.

    I do use "Spring water" for everything. Even the water in my firebelly toads tank, for misting, for cleaning, anything that involves water. But some say to use distilled water, and some say to use the spring water for some of the natural chemicals. But I never knew what one was better, maybe you know.

    The only reason I use crickets is because most say its a perfectly healthy diet for frogs. My other 2 fires eat them up but they eat smalls and somtimes ill give them some large ones.
    Ill try another cricket tonight and if he doesnt even look at it, than ill try your nightcrawlers .

    Thank you very much for the info and the quick reply! Im glad to be part of the frogforum community

    You MUST give him/her a water bowl of some kind for soaking. He will dehydrate and die if you do not supply a water source. It has to be shallow because Pacman Frogs are not good swimmers. No deeper than half the height of your frog.
