Hello Brett! Looks like you are doing OK with enclosure. Did you tried Colleen/Jerrod idea of leaving just a shallow substrate layer so frog can't cover it's head?

Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog!
You can offer her more fattening foods too when she eats. Foods like Hornworms, Silkworms, pinky mice, or fuzzy mice. These foods are good for weight gain, but rodents of course need to be used sparingly. Samurai Pacman Food can help some with weight gain as well. You may want to raise the humidity some. Cornuta like high humidity and since your frog is a Fantasy she may have a lot of needs similar to Cornuta. 80% to 85%.
I've been keeping Peggy in a Kritter Keeper with about a half inch of water since the last time I posted, and she's doing great. Her colors are brighter, she's more alert and active, and she eats like a hog. When she's not eating, she's trying to eat me through the walls of her container.

Frog reaction to a water environment is strange since neither parent is aquatic. Couple things to watch for is that, when terrestrial frogs like Pacmans and ABFs are raised in an aquatic environment with slippery botom, their rear legs can get malformed. Also, make sure it's getting CA and vitamin supplements. Good luck!
