My Pacman could be in trouble!

good to hear, its also good practice to take them out and soak them in de chlorinated water to help them get hydrated, it helps to promote feeding, in my experience

I agree, and to feed as well, i feed my small guys on wet paper towels when i remove them for feeding, this way they eat and wont get any coco fiber in them, once they are medium to large in size you can feed them in the enclosure, but for small ones, they get fed on wet paper towels, with de-chlorinated water of course.

Good advice guys, do they like to be handled or is it something they can get used to?

Most really don't like to be handled. They can be somewhat accustomed to handling over time, but they should not be handled often.

Norman is sitting in his little pond, been there for a couple of hours. I also purchased a water filter today which removes 90% of impurities.

Water filters don't remove all the chemicals. You will still need to treat the water with a dechlorinator.

Now that you got Norman active and eating it's time to leave him alone and watch him grow. Change his dish water daily, feed a nice diet of earthworms and gut loaded crickets, add CA 2x and vitamins 1x a week on alternate days, spot clean and do full change cleanup with substrate change once a month, and avoid handling as much as you can. Only other thing you can do is to have vet do a fecal test for possible parasites.

IRT water filter, if you mean a tap water filter; would not use it for frog water if it removes any minerals too. Just use tap water with a good de-chlorinator. Good luck !
