    Seems like my pacman is acting a little lazier then usual. It hasn't moved much in two weeks. I'm a bit concerned since it's only eaten 2 nightcrawlers in almost 3 weeks. I'm posting this because I went out today and bought her a mouse to eat because I figured she's hungry. I put the mouse in the enclosure and she didn't seems interested at all.

    Here's why I'm concerned. She's keeping her eyes closed a lot. Normally she kinda lays there with her eyes half open. Usually when I mist the tank I squirt her a bit and she perks right up. Eyes get wide and sometimes sits up a bit. Lately when I mist the tank she hasn't been doing that. I bought a different kind of conditioner and been using it for the past two weeks. The water turns a bit brown and bubbles a bit. My other conditioner didn't do that. I'm going to attach some photos for some references.

    I can't open attachment, but conditioner that turns water brownish and bubbles doesn't seem right. what kind/brand is that? can you take a pic?

    but something off is going on and i have a feeling that it is because of your conditioner. Would you please answer to Troubles in the enclosure questions to make sure everything is covered.

    Something is wrong with you attachments and they will not open.

    Get a new conditioner. That is not right at all. The water should remain clear after being treated.

    I'll try uploading the pictures again. I included a picture of the conditioner I started using too. I've looked at that troubles in the enclosure template and I'm pretty sure it's nothing there. I'm more interested in this conditioner more then anything.

    the conditioner looks ok, but any conditioner for fish tanks or frogs doesn't add any color or bubble, may be something wrong with that particular bottle. Get a new one - prime or exo terra to have a peace of mind and redo everything, water, substrate if treated with this conditioner water was added, I would also suggest pedyalite soak with a few drops of honey to remove any toxins that might have gotten in your frog.

    I'm not familiar with that brand. The only thing I can think of that bubbles when you add it to aquarium water is Melafix and some others that advertise that they specifically help the fish's slime coat. I noticed your conditioner made a point of that, so that may have something to do with it (I think a lot of them contain tea tree oil too, so you might be able to smell whether that's what it is or not).
    It probably wouldn't hurt your frog, but it's better to soak and get a different kind just to be safe like Lija said.
