If mealworms aren't good for them because of the exoskeleton, then why are crickets ok? They have exoskeleton too. Also, the care sheet for FBTs said that ten gallons was good for three to four frogs, and I have read other sources that have had numbers larger than that. I may not be a math major, but given those numbers it seem as though one FBT should do fine in 5.5gals.
Mealworms have a higher concentration of chitin in their exoskeletons, making them harder to digest. Over feeding them mealworms will eventually cause an impaction.

One frog in the 5.5 is cutting it a bit tight, but should be ok. Keep in mind that care sheets are written by regular folk, like us, so size of habitation may just be an opinion of the author. If you're having issues housing food, it doesn't really make sense to add more mouths to feed anyway ;-)

Your best bet may just be to plan a weekly feeding schedule and buy crickets as needed, then you don't need to store the extras.
