Exclamation New Horned "pacman" frog

i just bought a new horned frog about 5 days ago... and he hasn't started eating yet.... I don't know if he's just in too much stress at the moment from being introduced to a new "environment"... But i think it's just odd that he's not eating.. the pacman i got prior to this ate the first day i got it.... I keep this one in a tank almost identical to the other's. It's a 20 gal, wiht a under tank heater keeping it at 82 degrees F
....substrate is woodchips and potting soil without any added chemical 5h1T!!
there's a shallow water dish ......
I've tried feeding him crickets, wax worms...feeder fish..(i got rid of the tankful with ich)... no luck wiht him eating

Sounds like he's been pretty busy the last few days. Let him go a few days without feeding him or messing with him at all. Providing he's healthy now a few days without food won't be a problem.

It doesn't sound like he's had time to get used to his new home yet.

No problem. I've got one now that went 6 months without eating. Then it fired up. But giving it some time will help.
