I have been using repashy calcium+ at every feeding and then using repashy vitamin A once a month. I haven't had an issue once I started doing this schedule!

how long have you been dosing this?
have you tried it with a baby pacman?

Repashy Calcium Plus is an all in one supplement and works great. I know of several people who use it exclusively now.

If an all in one isn't your thing you can us a mixture of Repcal Calcium With D3 and Repashy Supervite, If Alternating a Calcium supplement and a Multivitamin off the calcium more times a week than the multivitamin. I do this rotation presently and do Calcium 3 to 4 times a week and Multivitamin 2 times a week.

Supplementing every feeding is a good idea and a good habit to get into.

Vitamin A is good especially if you are breeding your frogs, but you can OD your frogs on vitamin A so please use it sparingly and with caution.

Thanks for for the information. I think I'll buy the calcium plus and use this every feed with the odd action with vitamin A.

quite a while back I lost a small pacman, he became week and lost the use of his front legs.
now I wasn't giving him vitimins only calcium. I think this may have caused him to go down hill. I want to ensure this does not happen again! I have realised my mistake and want to give another pacman the best home possible.

Limit the vitamin A to 1 time a month

Paul, Are there any downsides to using an all in one supplement?
In my mind I see it as a balanced meal, compared to having to alternate between the two supplements. For example to describe what I mean with imagery say, drinking milk one day and eating a bunch of carrots for the next and alternating every day rather than just eating a balanced meal everyday.

I would imagine the only real answer to this is the actual amount of nutrition that the supplements provide at time of feeding. Like you said, ODing on Vitamin A can be dangerous, but would it even be possible at all using an all in one supplement?

I haven't gotten into the habit of properly supplementing every meal for my pacmans but I have nailed down their eating habits and schedules.

Still curious on the follow up question comparing the pros/cons on the all in one supplement VS alternating between supplements. This'll be beneficial knowledge when I attempt to make frog sausages and anyone else who cares :O
