New Pac !!!!!!

[crilund]

Hello forums,
After a couple of months researching and wanting a pacman i finally bought one this weekend at a reptile expo here in So-Cal. I have him set up in a 5 gallon tank with eco-earth, a water dish with enough water for him to sit without drowning, and a UVB light fixture. I dont have anything type of heat so i was wondering if it is needed or will it be fine. I have attached a couple of pics let me know what you think and if hell be fine
like this.

Nice pickup!

Some people uses heatmats on the side of tanks but it really depends on the night/day temperatures in your area.

You will likely want a heat pad. They like to have their temp around 80ish during the day. Its not a dire rush though, so don't panic. /offers towel
