does eny body know proper care for a pack man frog.
if you know eny info please post here .:)
 
LOL, pretty easy.

Important thing to remember is they need dechlorinated water, like a fish. Some people keep them on gravel, but I prefer digestable substrate, like fine coconut mulch. Should be humid and warm. Eats anything, mostly bugs when small...I usually give them pink mice for the sake of calcium...that's about it
 
i have herd that you can keep them in moss is this true
 
Yeah...I've seen them in bare bottom tank with moss...Just make sure you keep it clean!
 
ok where can you get coconut mulch is it big mulch or tiny mulch
and can you take a pic of you pack man frog
 
I don't have frogs anymore...no more live bugs for me :)...Most reptile stores sell it, go for small stuff, in case they swallow it while engulfing their prey.
 
thanks for info
i might just get the moss because i don't wont him to die
and how often should i clean the moss
 
Dont get moss in my opinion. It is possible for them to eat the moss while feeding accidentally, and can cause compaction and death. A much better choice would be coconut fibers, also known as bed a beast. Pacmans should eat a staple of crickets, goldfish, and most other bugs. Pinkies can also be fed. Set up the tank mostly empty, with a large water dish on one end.
 
thanks
i am getting coconut fibers. do you know where i can get some
