sorry, haven't noticed these q were for tree frog, not for pac, but most q are the same.
See below in blue and red:
1----what 'kind' of frog is it ( what species) Green Pacman Frog
2----please include a photo of the frog
very pretty 
3----Please include a photo of the frog's current enclosure Current enclosure is coconut husk with water and frog, I don't have a photo sorry.
4----size of enclosure ( W" x D" x H" ) Standered 10g tank
5----# on inhabitants - ( if there is another frog --- is there a size difference ? ) NONE
6----has or was the frog kept with a different species or with any other tank mate NONE
7----is there a new tank mate----was the new tank mate quarantined NONE
8----what is the typical humidity level 70-80
9----what temperature is maintained 65-75
too low, you need 76-78 night, 80-82 day
10---what is, specifically, being used to maintain the temperature of the enclosure Heat matt
Move it to the side very carefully, heat pad can't be attached to the bottom of the tank for pacman frogs
11---describe the enclosure lighting ( very specifically) Vitamin D plant Florescent sun light
you don't need it, any low light lamp will do, in fact ambient room light is enough.
12---describe enclosure maintenance ( water changes, cleaning etc) Twice a month
please specify: water changes- how often, substrate changes - how often?l
13---what kind of water is used Tap treated with exo terra repto safe
-----for misting Tap treated with exo terra repto safe
-----for the frog's soaking dish Tap treated with exo terra repto safe
-----is de-chlorinator used / what brand Exo-Terra Repto Safe
thats good!
14---material(s) used for substrate - be very specific Exo Terra Coconut Husk
15---enclosure set up: Moist exotera coconut husk
-----if recent - describe how the enclosure was cleaned White Vinegar and hot water.
-----plants( live or artificial) if artificial plants are used are they plastic or fabric None
-----describe wood, bark , and background materials None
Coconut husk is not suitable for pacs, you need coconut fiber( plantation soil, exo earth). Coconut husk has bigger pieces that will irritate frog when it burrows as well as its impaction risk.
16---when is the last time the frog ate Yesterday
17---have you found poop lately Not really, it's been hard to find I clean out the dirt and water.
18---how often is the frog fed About 3 Crickets a week now.
19---what size feeder is given Large Crickets
20---what other feeders are used as treats Sometimes feeder fish. Not anymore, he stopped liking them.
21---what is the frog's main food source Large Crickets
22---do feeders roam free in the enclosure or is the frog bowl fed In enclosure until fed, then roam free, removed if dead.
A year old frog is adult, crickets are not cutting it anymore, you need to add nightcrawlers, mice ( no more then one a month)
23---vitamins - what brand and how often None
24---calcium - what brand and how often I don't remember the brand but this is about once a month.
25---was the frog without calcium for any period of time See above
right now he is an adult, but you still need to supplement every second feeding with ca/vitd3 and multivitamins every 2 weeks or so.
26---approximate age of the frog Yearling
27---how long have you owned the frog One year in May
28---who cared for the frog before you Pet Smart
29---is the frog wild caught or captive bred Captive
30---how often the frog is handled -- are gloves used ( what kind of gloves) 3 times a moth?
31---is the enclosure kept in a high or low traffic area High Traffic
are 3 sides of tank covered?
30---has or was the frog properly quarantined (yes or no) No?
-----for how long
32---has the frog been treated with any medication: No
-----for what
-----name of medication
-----for how long
-----what dose
-----was medication prescribed by a herp vet
a frog seems to be stunted as it appears to be very small for an adult frog, my guess he is no bigger then 2.5"? Am I right?
