Although they make peaceful pets, these amphibians have been known to bite when threatened in the wild.

Since Pacman frogs are not very active, they do not require a large cage.

Additionally, a shallow bowl of water that the frog can sit in and drink from without drowning should be available.

Keep the tank's temperature around 82 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and let it fall to roughly 78 degrees Fahrenheit at night.

Given that they are not picky eaters, Pacman frogs are fairly simple to feed.
