    You need to put it on a substrate that gives it support. What you have it in now is too "Slippery" and will start to change how its feet sit and it wont be able to walk after awahile. Put it in 2 inches of coco fiber and keep it more dry than wet. Mist the frog daily.

    What kind of bottled water are you using? Tap water that has been de-chlorinated is best.
    Distilled water is bad. Mike is right though, your substrate is too wet and gives no support.
    Keep us posted!
