New Pacman Frog-need heating help

[lovenokia]

I read about that somewhere, I wonder why the pet smart lad never told me this. Thanks

So I need smaller cage, lower wattage lights, background papers and the frog should then do fine?

Its because these people are getting paid $8.50 an hour, i have herd multiple people say on here that the guy's from Petco or where eva are giving the wrong info to customers that are new to having pets esp pac-mans i just don't get it though Petco has free care sheets but nice frog they sure are pretty cool.

well the care sheet from petsmart was very questionable. It kinda said that i need it but was not very descriptive, the care sheet was too vague in my opinion.

Tim has you on the right track. Return the bulbs you have for 50 watt bulbs. You will also need a lamp that has a dimmer switch so your bulbs aren't on full blast and drying out the tank.

You'll want a medium to large critter keeper with a UTH made for Hermit Crabs placed on the back and yes cover the sides of the setup so the frog feels secure. You can also cover the top of the keeper with Saran Wrap to help hold heat and humidity in, but don't cover the vents on the ends to allow circulation.

here is a pic of the lighting equipment that i bought yesterday, so pretty much return this and go for the 50 watt and below right?

UTH is a Under Tank Heater. Saran Wrap is plastic wrap.

i have heard that it may cause the bedding to get too hot, with using the UTH i will still need the bulbs with dimmer correct. I do not want to overcook my frog.
