I got a new pacman about 3 days ago. Its a baby, about the size of a quarter.

The day i got him, he ate 2 crickets, about 2 hours apart. The next day i got him set up in his tank..and he ate one. For the rest of the day i couldn't get him to eat anymore. So i dusted 2 and put them in there for the night (book i have on them says they hunt at night, so figured that would be ok). I woke up the next morning and one had drowned in the water dish and one was MIA, so im guessing he had eaten it. Same thing the rest of the day, wouldn't eat anymore. Put two in again at night and both were there in the morning.

Also, the day after he was introduced to the tank i noticed his sides have a slight green tint (he's an albino).

I have him on moss and underneath that is gravel. So im guessing he got some moss going for one of the crickets. Tomorrow i'm going out to buy some coir and see if he can get around a little better, i think the moss is too hard for him to move around in. I put him in the waterdish myself because i never see him move from the spot he's in. He does get out of the dish just fine.

Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks
