    Keep the frog in fresh, clean water and keep the water shallow enough so the frog can breath but keep all of its body submerged.

    The frog sounds very dehydrated but it may still recover. Do not try to feed the frog yet (they cannot properly digest food if dehydrated).

    If the frog is starting to move, that is a good sign. I would just give this frog rest and time to recover.

    Can you post some pics? I would not add the frog back until it becomes very active.

    The discoloration is concerning though.

    Oh okay this is a very small froglet. How long as he out?

    If you can get the water a bit lower that may help so he can use his energy to recover rather than struggling to get air.

    He does not look too bad from the picture. I would just make it so he can get air easily and rest and he -should- be okay.

    Not a problem. A single hour to get out of the water isn't a grave danger for these frogs, if it were 12+ hours he would be in the danger zone but an hour? Probably mildly dehydrated at best.

    I once had a clawed frog out of the water for several hours (my house had no carpet luckily) and I found him laying under my recliner and tossed him back in the tank and he was fine. If he were dried out and listless I would have followed the advice I had provided you earlier though.
