Pacman frog apetite problem

[jasonm96]

100 ceramic heat emitter on a 10-gallon is far too intense heat for a frog. I would suggest raising the temps of the room and using a lower wattage

I also live in Edmonton so the average temperature is like -40 degrees Celsius so anything smaller won't get the job done

Not the best place to keep a tropical species, it's the same as keeping a cool climate species in a warm country - it just doesn't work well. I made this mistake living up the north of Scotland although it doesn't drop that low here. The only solution is to heat the room with an oil-filled radiator on stat to 72F or so and then use a low-wattage bulb during the day. The radiator will also dry out the air but it will be an ambient heat, rather than a direct heat it would feel directly under a bulb

Jason is right your going to need to find another to heat the actual room up abit, you really don't want to go over that 100 watt CHE. Even just a little space eater from wal mart would do the trick.

Yes but the heater is about 18 inches away from the bottom of the tank it. Heats it up fine and in the summer I only run a 50 watt night time bulb.but let's refocus on the eating problem

[jasonm96]

Heat stress is a common cause of frogs refusal to eat and also weakens the immune system

He eats tho just not in as large volume as a frog of his size
