Pacman wont eat!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i do it monthly if i can see the poop and can spot clean it but... usually it cant be seen. when i had him on water it was every couple of days.

how often do people wit pacman frogs usually clean their tanks?

i used to have one and i used to do the same as you (spot clean and a full change once a week) it died after about 2 years , it just stoped eating . looking back at it now i think i may have put to much stress on it by doing to many changes(still not sure if that was the case).. have you got any views on this???
 
dam so u had experience with a pacman frog that just stopped eating too? im just gonna euthanize mine i swear..jkkk im gonna offer it a live pinky 2day but i doubt he's gonna snap at it..:confused:
 
Keep it on bugs. Feed it pinkies as sparingly as possible.
 
how big exactly is he? u can probly do a fuzzy, they move more and attract the frog more with all their movement. (who dosen't like a chase? :naughty: ) the enclosures looking good i must say, the temps are basicly perfect, i'd say change the bedding about once a month, or every other week unless it starts to stink, every ones differnt (frog that is) so figure out how offten he needs to be cleaned if he only goes every like third day then change the bedding every other week or so, spot clean every couple days if you can see the poop (probly wont see it just smell it :ROFL:) where does he stay in his enclosure? on the hot side or the cool side? it looks like your on the right track :) i wish you the best of luck with the frog, since im posting late let us know how the feeding attempt goes tomarow! (or today...in a few minutes =D)

im gonna feed it a live pinky tomorrow at night right after turning the lights off. when is the best time to feed a pacman frog? im planning to just leave the pinky in there overnight since it probably wont harm a pacman frog overnite rite??

im just going to try a pinky because it seems to be what pacman frogs love to eat more. i want to get something that looks like a steak dinner to him, that thing needs to eat!
