new to all things pacman.

Hi, I'm super new to pacman ownership. Would like to ask for pointers on my pac's tank. I got him since last Friday, he is eating well on mealworms and i just feed him a feeder fish this morning but i have yet to see his poop.

He is about 3cm long. Wondering if i still need to give him calcium supplements?

Looking forward to the pointers. Thank you

Plus i can't seem to add my pics to the thread. Will try again later.

dont feed to meany mealworms i would suggest that you feed earthworms keep giveing calcium supplements with D3. i wouldint feed feeder fish eather because thay carry periceits. as for houseing use co-co fiber for bedding and keep your temps with in 75-80 with a small drop in temp at night.

sorry for so much miss spelling i dont have spell check on this comp

Its kinda hard for them to digest mealworm try to give it earthworms to soften up the poop. Try to keep temps at 82°. Aww u beat me to it Loca lol.

Hi thanks all the tips. Really appreciate it!
I wish i can show you the pic of my tank set up. It's hard to find echo earth in Singapore, as reptile as pets are actually illegal here. I have taken the advice to find Figaro some earthworms. Just wonder how many to feed, as they are not super sized as the ones in the US.

The weather in Singapore is pretty tropical with very little fluctuation in the temp. Although i know that pac mans like to burrow, i am using a very short semi aquatic plant (similiar to duck weed) on some aquarium sponge. He seems to burrow into just fine. Will keep a look out for eco earth though.

I seen to have some problems with posting in the forum from my lap top and have to use my mobile. Wonder if anyone can help with this comp problem as well?

Frogs are not reptiles. They are amphibians. I don't know why you are having trouble with you CPU, but if you have any specific questions feel free to ask.

Feed your Pac as much as he will eat in a 15 minute time span.i would also suggest that you feed either from tongs, or move the frog to another cage for feeding. You don't want him to ingest any substrate

Thanks for the advice, i try not to move Figaro around to much as i think it freaks him out. But there is space in the tank that is free from substrates. Gonna give him his first earth worm today. Hope he likes them.

unfortunately in Singapore, the gov is quite restrictive, the only frog allowed to be kept as pets, is the green tree frogs...
I'll try another comp to see if i can post threads from there. Thank you all.
