Albino pacman

[Baloo]

My room mate just bought me an albino pacman for my birthday. I'm just out the door to work and need a link for their light requirements. I appreciate the help. Thank you.

Welcome to the forum!

Albinos are sensitive to daylight; but still require 28C (82F) day temps with around a centigrade degree drop at night. Myself prefer a Ceramic Heat Emitter (no more than 60W) in a Fluker's or similar dome fixture with dimmer. Can also use red incandescent bulbs for same purpose. Good luck and share a pic of frog !

Only a centigrade drop? With my other pacman I've been maintaining a 27-28C during the day and 23-24c at night. Do albino like staying warmer at night? I got a 50W red bulb here for him. He chirps sometimes :-)

Cool. I wish I got gifts like that! Be sure to post a picture.

A slight drop is recommended. It can be as low as 76°F (24.4°C) or as high as 78°F (25.5°C) at night. It has nothing to do with the frog being albino just a recommendation. You could use the method you are already using.
