I like everything except the last part where you used tweezers to take him out. You could have just washed your hands without soap or have used powder free gloves to take the frog out.
I think I could find the most reliable information here. I got a Pacman frog, but the person I bought it from told me not to put any water in, because the frog could drown, and he also said that under no circumstances should I feed it worms, not grow it on a terrarium mat - in other words, the exact opposite of everything i see in this video and others. please advise me how to grow her
First of all, actually the safest way to keep a Pacman is to use water only. With these substrates there's a chance that the frog will ingest the substrate when eating. You shouldn't worry about it drowning as long as you keep the water level below its mouth. About feeding worms, as long as the worms are captive bred and germ free, it should be fine, in fact, it is one of the best foods for them. Hope this helps.
What about a filtration system for the pond? Do you not need that since the plants or do you change water out if so how ? Trying to remake this for mine.
Hey there. A bit late but you probably wouldn’t need a filtration unit on that small of a pond, heck I doubt you’d be able to fit one, But the lava rock is very porous and great for beneficial bacteria and the plants eat the waste of the bacteria. especially that frogbit (ones that look like little lily pads) so it should stay clean
@@sakofinnbear5654 yeah my is prolly 6 times bigger in a 10 gal and I change my coconut fiber about every 5 days for my boy the pond is wicked I'm gonna have to copy u
Does it necessarily need a screen lid i set mine up but don’t have a lid for the 10 gallon aquarium i’m using for it, i’ll try to buy one separately but will it need one?
@@dnadesignn mk! also, how much did this setup cost? minus tank and decor, been taking notes for my own Pac-Man frog and I wanna have a estimated number to save up for.
@@munn.d0g309 well, the price must be different in different places. But without the tank and the decor, you mean the substrate and the little pond only? It costs me around $13. The expanding foam is the one that cost me the most, others are actually quite cheap. Btw, I will upload a video on making a cheaper setup for Pacman frogs, still with a little pond but without the expanding foam. 👍
I saw from other comments that most of the water evaporates, but what about purifying it when your Pacman uses the restroom in it? Do you have a process for that? (I'm currently working on a bioactive terrarium for my Pacman which will have a waterfall feature. Still figuring out the best way to keep the water clean)
