    Question on PacMan Frogs

    I think I know the answer already... but I wanted to get a rack for my bp's. Would it be feasible to keep the pac man on the bottom level of the rack where the heat would be the lowest? How about having it on different thermostats? I just got the pacman and not sure on all its little requirements.

    Re: Question on PacMan Frogs

    I don't think it would be really feasible personally. PacMans require a totally different setup than a ball python. They need much higher humidity, substrate to burrow in, lower temps and a day/night cycle. You'd be better off setting up the pacman in a 10gallon tank on top of the rack IMO.

    It would be some serious waste of space.

    Pacs require very little space and offering 32 or 41 quarts of space would be OVER KILLED.

    Temps of 88/90 would be fine and you can provide 2 inches of damp substrate in a tub so there is no issue there.

    But again more space than what's needed.

    Mine actually leaves in a small tank right above my rack.

    I understand it would be a waste of space, but being I only have 2 bp's in single tubs, smallest rack I can find is 3, and I can't really afford another bp/corn or any snake to fill the last spot, and heck I'd hate to leave it open.

    Thanks for the input, I'll just leave him in the tank I have him in.
