Best way to keep pacmans?

[MeTree]

Oh, if it is a baby, then it is probably best to leave it in the container for now, assuming the container is capable of meeting the Pacman Frog's needs (humidity, temp, etc.). Larger juvies and young adults are fine with larger tanks such as a 10g tank. I personally think this is the best size, but others will say 20g Long, and others will say itsy-bitsy. I am just speaking from much research and personally watching my Pacman interact with his environment.

Young Pacman Frogs are very good about eating. Many of them will eat every day if you offer it. Malcolm grew out of that phase at about a month old, though. *sigh*

Muddy is good, just as long as they wont drown themselves if they burrow abit. You don't want standing water under the surface of the substrate. Moist cocofiber is a great way to keep the heat up, and it closely emitates their nature environment, near swamps and riverbanks in South America.

Yes, definitely the coco fiber over the husk. Give him/her a few a good few inches of substrate though, as they love to burrow.

Gah! I barely ever see mine eat at all. The cricket supply just sorta goes down over a 2-3day span haha. That's the only time I really see him actually, as soon as the cricket gets put in, you look a few seconds later to find eyes poking out of the substrate ^.^ It's always a shock actually, occasionally he'll be in the water dish and he's just.. bigger haha.

I think tubs or racks from walmart are the best way to go provide alot of humidity for them my 3 pacs are in tubs and the big female is in a ten galwith eco earth and waterdish

These frogs like cover, so while keeping them on a pad is easy, it has to stress the frog over time. I would definitely use a real substrate.
