I made sure I read the care sheet and it seems pretty similar, but maybe you guys can recommend or mention something I should know. (I.E: I did not know albino pacmans were sensitive to light and could only use infrared- Little details like this that could make a big difference)

Thanks!
The care article pretty much says it all. They are more fond of water than a Pacman so you will be changing the water everyday. Provide a dish that is chin deep on the frog if possible, but make sure it can easily enter and exit the dish.

They can be VERY aggressive so watch you fingers when the frog becomes large enough to be hard to handle. Like Pacman frogs they have teeth(all frogs do actually), but Pyxi teeth are much larger and more likely to bloody your hand.

Scared yet??? Lol!

As babies they can be housed the same as a Pacman while growing the frog to juvenile stage. A medium or large critter keeper(reptile carrier) work great setup just like with a Pacman. Warning!!!! This species of frog grows very rapidly and you will be buying new water dishes about every other week or more until adulthood. They also eat far more than any Pacman so keep stocked up on lots of Night Crawlers and Dubia Roaches.

If there is anything I have left out I'm certain someone else will chime in.
