well first of all, your frog looks great. i love pacman frogs lol.
secondly, im not 100% accurate with this, but im pretty sure the temperature should be between 70 and 80 degrees, and humidity should be kept high, so probably about 65%+. but like i said, ive gathered this knowledge from stuff ive read/heard, so dont rely compltely on me lol.
but good luck, im sure someone else will bee able to help you out better.
I just got my first pacman in January.
I keep him around 75-80 with a very humid enviroment...it's never less than 70% humidity in there. Doing great so far.

i have two pacmans, an albino like yours, and a pigmented , i keep them at 81 thats perfect temp for them, it falls to about 70 at night , i keep the humidity at about 70, as long as your substrate is kept moist low humidity will not hurt them, i use a lamp and a uth in the day and just the uth at night.
thanks every one for the nice comments and the help. i seem to have about the same temps and humidity every one has suggested.
heres a better pic of my Pumpkin

how big do those frogs grow to? and how big would an enclosure have to be to house them?
Here's a good site for them. http://www.geocities.com/tozgood/home.html
Very cute! I actually got mine in late feb-early march. I wasn't thinking when I typed January.

how fast do pacman frogs grow? like, how long will it take for marisa's frog to become full grown?
kid, mine pretty much trippled its size in just a few months, he is constantly sheding, constantly growing, not sure how long it will take him to get full grown, it might not even be a him though! if its a girl she could get enormous, i'v heard of female pacmans eating rats
