    Default Re: I can't keep pacs alive?

    Jasonm96 is right on point about the temps and that could seriously be part of the problem. I have had petstores tell me they can be kept at room temp or low 70's and that is completely false once you seek advice from experienced pac owners. When they put in low temps for along time there organs will start to slowly shutdown, and when the kidneys shutdown they can get stuff like edema( retaining water) and this not fixable. And as stated above this is a big part of digestion, to cold and digestion really slows down. Also if you are keeping them in tubs do you use any kind of light to give them daylight. They should have a 12 hour day and night cycle. And sorry to hear about the loss of others and hopefully with some advice from others on the forum we can help save the other 2.
