Now I put the fish infront of her and she has no desire of eating. She just turns around. It's been a little over two weeks since the last time she was fed. (The fish are about half her size, sometimes a tad bigger) Then just recently I tried Crickets. I use to feed her crickets and fish for the first month I got her, and she ate about 7 crickets within an hour. I put 10 crickets, and I notice just 2 are gone within two days. And TRUST me, she's actually active for being a Pacman frog. She can seriously chase down anything she wants I always find a nice size poop even when she's not eating. So please help, her size hasn't decreased and her color is still the same so I am not too worried, but just in case something is serious, I want to know.

INFO:
She's an Inch 1/2 length and an Inch and 1/2 Width. She's not too big.
She's in a 10 gallon tank with 3 inches high of EcoEarth.
Temperature and Humidity are ALWAYS on the dot. (I always check twice a day and night. I also got the most accurate ones so I know for a fact it's not the Temp, or humidity. From 77-83 F and humidity is always around 76% to 80%)
I spray everything a few times a day with Distilled water.
I barely handle her. (I know how that stresses them out)
(Someone told me she's hibernating BUT she's always hopping around at night and sometimes during the day.)
I usually feed her at night, but also tried the day and still no eating.
There's a water dish. Also Distilled water.
There is Moss but only a huge chunk in the corner so she doesn't eat on it.
There are no plants, just a dish and moss.
and I usually clean the tank once every 2 months
Welcome to Frog Forum,

First off fish are food items used as treats not a staple food. Second, distilled water can only be used for misting and fog machines. It contains absolutely no salts or minerals that the frog needs to properly hydrate itself. It literally leaches all vitamins and minerals as well as salts and electrolytes out of the frog. You MUST use all natural spring water or tap water treated with a de-chlorinating agent like Prime or ReptiSafe for the soaking dish. These two factors are probably the main cause of her not eating.

Also I will address your frog's climate. Day time temp must be 80° to 83° and night temp 75° to 79°, but hover around 78° Humidity is fine, but 80% is ideal.

They MUST have a day/night cycle. 12 hours of day and 12 of night. They're nocturnal so all feeding should be done at night.

Cleaning the enclosure MUST be done no less than once a month. Two months is too long and the frog can become ill from ammonia buildup in the soil from its urine. This will cause the frog to Tox Out. The frog is not aestivating if it up and active.

Post some pictures of the frog and get rid of the moss. You don't know whether the frog chases crickets over onto the moss while you sleep and it could eat some. Also any live food item or items that have not been eaten should be removed every morning.

Post pics if the frog and its enclosure.
