New to frogs and have question about Pacmans

[cjbage]

First off thank you all for having such wonderful information, I have been reading the forums for days now weeding out all of the bad info that I obtained from researching these particular frogs from other places around the web, so much varying info. I do have a question concerning the quarantining of this type of animal. As this will be my first foray into frog keeping I wanted something that would be fairly good for a beginner.

I understand obtaining a baby or a juvenile is common and as such should be kept in a smaller enclosure similar to a pet keeper ( 17.5" L X 12" W X 6.88" H is this size I was looking at ) until it reaches approximately 3.5" in length then moved to its permanent residence. My question is this, when reading the posting on quarantine it is mainly geared toward tree frogs or non burrowing frogs, should I still set up with paper towels on the bottom or should I set up with eco-earth as I would in the permanent tank? Please excuse me if this has been posted elsewhere I have been going page by page in the sub-forum and may have just missed it.

I am still in the researching stage at this time so haven't purchased anything yet. Will be looking to set up with purchases of equipment and so forth in the spring to see exactly what I will need to maintain for temperature / humidity in the room until it is stable then decide if I want to take the chance on a store purchased frog or try and find a breeder in the North Carolina area that I can look at and buy from. I am not crazy about the idea of shipping to this area, as the delivery people.. USPS, Fed Ex, or UPS are all unreliable and don't seem to understand what Fragile means and would hate to see if they know what Live Animal means.

Thanks again
