Hi amandaglad,
I'm so sorry to hear your frog is not doing well. I have never had ACF's. the only semi-aquatic frog I have is an American bullfrog. Quite different.
In learning much about water frogs, it's always good to get your water retested if any doubt. Have you added any new items to the tank? Any possible contaminates?
The tremors may be due to lack of calcium in the diet. It is good to rotate foods in water frogs so they have balanced nutrition. Most frog pellets provide adequately nutrients. If you can find a Repashy aquatic frog food it will be properly balanced.
I don't think your frog has Chytrid. He is no displaying the other symptoms of the disease.
I would recommend a calcium replacement.
If he pulls through the night, a vet visit may help. They could give him a proper weight-dosed injection of calcium gluconate. It works quickly.
Flukers makes a liquid calcium supplement also that can be used as a soak.
Powdered calcium supplement, even when wet, is not soluble or absorbent. It has to be ingested and must also have vitamin D3 to be properly absorbed.
I'd recommend a vet visit first thing if you can afford the visit. If not, try the calcium soak next.
I hope he pulls through the night.
If he looks to be suffering, you may want to consider euthanizing him. It is a humane way of ending any possible discomfort. The gentlest way to do this is to gently apply baby Oragel to his belly.
I will check back tomorrow. Hugs!
