Do I Give My Pacman Frog A UVB Exo Terra 2.0 or 5.0 Compact Bulb and what vitamin supplemet?

[Dave jonez]

i do not currently have a pacman frog but when i do it will be a baby green pacman frog, the substrate i have is zoo med eco earth ( compressed coconut fiber) what size UTH will i need and how long will that need to be put on for? and could you give me a link to what vitamins i need? then il find a UK site to get them off and same for the day light bulbs, but wont the exo terra 2.0 compact bulb act as a daylight bulb due to low UVB? also cant i just misted the tank with a hand sprayer? and how many times a day do i feed it? thanks

for a baby you need smaller tank, baby will get scared in such a big tank = a lot of problems.
get a medium sized critter keeper one of those plastic ones, you attach small UTH ( or hermit crabs) on a side. Sure you can use 2.0 bulb ( 13W) if you are getting not albino one, just they are so much more expensive then regular bulbs or you can get small exo terra 30x30x30 ( or 45) - in cm then you can get bigger UTH and heat lamp.

multivitamins - any really for reptiles/amphibians currently I'm using exo terra ones Exo Terra : Multi Vitamin / Multi Vitamin Powder Supplement

sure you can spray, just make sure humidity is in right range.

well seems its a duel bulb holder i will have to order two 13w 2.0 bulbs, what problems like? just hope i haven't wasted £55, thanks for the link

or you can just use one bulb like I do, regular cheap energy saving one exo terra canopy looks very nice on a tank, but as i said it is way too big for a baby.

hi Dave, just for some uk based help

i get all of my equipment and some supplements from swell reptiles online and my supplements i got from ebay as it was cheaper.
im using the a 13W energy saving bulb in the canopy on my 30x30 exo terra and that does him perfectly, its on from 8am - 8pm. and it is after 8pm where he wakes up and becomes active, which is the time that i feed him

as for my supplements these are what im using
Rep-Cal Herptivite Multivitamin | eBay
Rep-Cal Calcium with Vitamin D3 High Quality Reptile Calci dust Nutrobol | eBay

hope this helps a bit
