He also seem to want to stay by the filter for some reason, Is he being sucked in by the current? It would seem he's a little to big for that.

That shouldn't be a problem. I think it's fine.

Sorry your frog is not well Stephan . Have you read this care guide: http://www.frogforum.net/care-sheet-...are-sheet.html. If not recommend you do so and correct any discrepancy in the enclosure. Because this issue started right after feeding those wild earthworms it's easy to link them to problem, or could just be coincidence.

Agree with Namio, the wild worms could contain toxic substances that could cause an acute response. The other possibility is that the enclosure water quality has been not good and the frog has a chronic health issue. Even with a filter, recommend you check the ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels. If you do not have test kits, most shops will do a free test if you take a water sample. Let us know what are the test results and will go from there.

If you can get a syringe with needle you can make a concentrated solution with dechlorinated water of CA/D3 or vitamins and inject that to night crawlers prior to feeding frog. Good luck !
