Feeding Crickets with tongues?

CokeofMan Aug 09, 2003 12:34 PM

Is it possible to feed a Pacman crickets with a tongue (How do u spell that?)? Why I would like to do this is beceause to prevent them from swallowing substrate when they are young.

Oh, one more question how do I clean terrarium moss? If I have to buy a new package of moss it will be really expensive. I'm planning to clean my frogs tank about every other week, is that fine?

Thanks in advance

Be careful using any feeding tool, you're horned frog will lunge at its prey if the tongue is sharpe nose the frog could be hurt.

I clean my larger frogs once every 6 months and they are all in good health. This would reduce the cost of replacing the moss (an easier option then getting it fully clean).

Good frogkeeping.

I think you should clean a pacman tank once every three weeks to a month. Just check and see how dirty the tank is. Also, I recommend that you clean up the poo when you see it.
