For food you can also feed blood worms, or basically any pelleted aquatic turtle/frog food that is small enough to fit into their mouths. A lot of people recommend reptomin sticks, you can break them up into bite size pieces. For hand feeding nightcrawlers are great, again you can cut these into bite size pieces. But as they grow they can handle longer and longer worms, it's pretty funny to watch an adult eat a whole nightcrawler.

I've heard these frogs recover from injuries very well. If he stops eating and acts lethargic then you may want to schedule a trip to a vet. So him swimming around and eating are both good signs. Keep an eye on him. A weak frog could turn into a meal for a slightly bigger tank mate.

Decent advice, but there are lots of exceptable filters out there. Do not worry about current/vibrations being a problem. That is a myth. These frogs need adaquate filtration so more is better where they are concerned.

Avoid the bloodworms. If you MUST feed that junk then used frozen/thawed only and only as a treat! There is a growing amount of evidence that bloodworms lead to bloat.
