Predatory Fat Frog Heating?

[the_evil_duboisi]

How are you supposed to heat a frog enclosure? I know that I lid is good, as it keeps in heat and food, but how should I heat the tank? With something called a under-tank heater? I lost a pacman 3 years ago because I didn't heat him, and I don't remember what I did to my other 3 pac's when I lived in Wisconsin(I was 9 then!)I don't want to do so again. And I heard Budgett's are similar to pacmans?

I keep a Budgetts Frog, they are similar to Horned Frogs (Pacman Frogs in the US) When adult a normal aquarium heater can be used to heat the water to around 24c. I was advised though a good way to provide heat for young Frogs is to keep the tank above a heated Fish tank, so Im keeping him above my Mudskippers, and he's doing great.

Budgetts Frogs are easy to keep, they arent as straight forward as Horned Frog's though, when adult they need to be kept in two different set-ups at different times of the year, its explained in this care sheet http/www.pollywog.co.uk/budgettscaresheet.html
