Default fogger for a frogger

Just bought myself a fogger for my Pacman and wow does it make my tank look sweet! It also seems to to do the job very well for my humidity.

I hope my $20 pacman likes the $100 fogger lol.

Seriously? Is it gold plated?

You might want to check out a standard cool mist humidifier from a local CVS/Walmart type store for $40. A lot of people, including myself, have easily retrofitted these for use in a vivarium/palu environment

Well, everything that I've done so far must be paying off. Since I've bought Elvis he's tripled in size and seems to be doing pretty well. So, thanks to you all for all your help, ideas and suggestions. I wish there was a way I could help you all back other than doing my little frog comic.

I have a few more questions for the pros here:

Question 1: Ok, so you all know that I have a Pac Man frog. I know they are supposed to be solitary, but could I put a Tree Frog in there too since he'd always be up on the glass or in the vines to not be eaten?

Question 2: Right now my Pacman has 3"+ of dirt in his tank all around to burrow in. Is that too much or not enough?

Unhappy

Wow, so apparently the light I got for my Pacman is way too hot. It raised the temperature to 90! As soon as I found that I immediately turned off the light. At first I was having problems keeping warm enough, now I'm having it too warm. Ug, I hope the guy is going to be ok.

Though on the positive side, Elvis has grown about 5 times the size from when I originally got him.

Not sure if anyone cares, but I found the caresheet that PetCo uses for them online in a PDF file.

Anyway, gonna lower the Temp back down to around 80. Feel sorry for the poor guy. So what is the lesson here? "Just because the box says "Perfect for <insert your type of creature here>" doesn't mean it necessarily is - at least it wasn't for me.
