    The person who doesn't treat the water is the owner of a pet store who has had many frogs with no issue, but I will look into a conditioner. Here is a picture of the enclosure, I also have this water additive I'm wondering if you think giving him a bath with a bit of this might help? Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1345044415.189641.jpg

    The terrarium looks completely soaked, its hould be moist, not soaked or it becomes unhealthy. Most people will tell you to take the moss out because of impaction risk. I use moss but clear all of the moss away from the frog before feeding.
    Thats a supplement not a water conditioner, but yes, soak it in that solution to help it back to health.

    Sorry your frog is sick, but just be careful and do as these guys recommend. They have lots of experience which is why your asking them. Sometimes pet stores are more focused on making money than keeping animals properly. Also there may be factors you don't know about such as the untreated water may be well or spring water he has access to not tap. Either way I hope your frog gets better and you get a definitive cause so you may adjust your husbandry/ care so it doesn't happen again.

    Talked to someone experienced with pacman frogs here and was advised to give soaks with calcium and the liquid i posted earlier. I started this tonight although I doubt it will make a difference. He seems pretty much dead already. When I pick him up he doesn't move :'(
