I just bought a baby pacman about the size of a large coin. the tempreature in the tank is about 80d is this a good tempreatue for him. Also what is a good diet for him. cheers feel free to post pics of your frog set ups to help with better ideas for his tank.
 
I have an 8" albino one i have had him for coming up 5 years that sounds like a reasonable temp for him i keep mine at 78 but anywhere up to 82 is ok. I find he loves to eat crickets locusts other insects maybe a pinky mouse once ever two weeks or so big mice as he gets big ang they seem to love feeder fish. Gl im sure it will bring you hours of enjoyment;)
 
He is a green morph albino i have pinky mice and wax worms i will go get some crickets how big is the set up you are keeping them in. muhahapu they are some nice looking frogs man.
 
10g setup is plenty to house in for full, they don't move much. Cocofiber substrates (Eco-Earth)are the best, stay away from gravels as that can cause impaction.


You can feed it anything from earthworms, tropical roaches, crickets, mealworms, waxworms, fishes, mice, chicks, quails, etc.

Mine will eat most of this, if given a chance except fish. He didn't like it and just throw them out of his water dish.
Here is a picture of mine. He is in a 10 gallon tank. Since it is our basement, we have a cheap fluorescent light and a UTH on the side of the tank. A large water dish that they can get into and out again is recommended as well. Here is a picture of ours. Sorry about the water spots, I should have cleaned it before I took the picture.
