    How old is your frog? Is he/she an adult?

    What are you humidity levels how many night crawlers do you feed him/her each feeding?

    How long has it been since he/she has pooped?

    How big is he/she SVL(Snout to vent length)?

    You need a hygrometer. Not being able to tell how much humidity your frog has is not good. This can also cause them to stop eating. Lack of proper humidity that is. Post some pics of your setup. Remember that these are tropical frogs and need tropical temps and humidity levels.

    Do you de-chlorinate your frogs Main water source(soaking dish)?

    Sometimes if humidity isn't correct they will burrow down and completely cover themselves. Try not to stress him/her more than you have to. If he/she doesn't come out to feed you can uncover his/her head and then offer food after a few minutes so that he/she is fully awake and alert.

    Keep me posted.

    You can use Pathos and Bromeliads. Make sure the. Pathos is up off the ground so that yhour frog can't accidentally eat any of.the leaves.

    I'm glad He/she is eating.
