Lose the moss. You actually DON'T want that with a Pac set-up.

You really should just get 100% organic peat. You can find it at lowes or home depot. Lose the moss...pacmans tend to eat it and it gets impacted. Your frog's gonna need a 10 Gal terrarium, A very shallow water bowl filled with bought distilled water or de-chlorinated water.....one that the frog can sit and have his head out of the water..They are not good swimmers. I have been told be other fellow frog forum members that the peat holds the moisture better then coconut fiber and tends to not stick to the pacmans as bad and I have found this to be true. They get less dirty with it and the food they eat tend to get less dirty with it as well. Allowing them to grab food and not substrate. At least you found this place to help you with the care of your frog. I would hate to see your new pet get impacted. Temperature needs to be from 75-84 degrees and humidity around 70-80 % as well. Also you will want to feed http://www.thefeederstore.com/ < feeder roaches, crickets, superworms (the body is softer shelled and they have not as hard of time digesting them as they would with mealworms ) , earthworms (cut into pieces for appropriate size) , pinkies and mice (only as a once a month treat) preferably frozen ones that have been thawed and prepared properly). Dust with calcium-d powder every other feeding. Watch for obesity and modify the amount being given if it occurs.
