Lindsey

sorry

When did he arrive?
Is he in a temp tank?

I read your previous / other post.
I bet he is very stressed.
I think you are right to keep him alone and really quiet.
I would not put any medicine on him, as touching him will just stress him more.
A couple crickets in the bowl can't hurt.
Cover 3 sides of the tank with a towel.

Hi lynn, *thank you* He arrived/delivered to my office at 11:26 am, NM time ( 1:26pm NYC time). He? was in the tubs he arrived in until 4pm today and then into the quarantine tank. He is in a 12x12x18 quarantine tank with a regular red-eye 1/2 his size who arrived at same time, they are in the same tank. He is less than a quarter length, v-s. He is still alive, wide awake on a pothos leaf. He seems like he is panicking, I am only *very quietly* peeking in at him. Lights off in tank and room, very quiet room. The humidity is 75 degrees, temp 75 f. I have decided to let him be? Is that ok?? I do not want to stress more. Also, occurred to me, I live at 7250 elevation... Could also be altitude sickness? I've lost 2 frogs in the last 2 years.. so I'm quite sad about this, I feel incredibly guilty and selfish to have bought him.... towel on three sides to provide some security. Thank you

Stick with your plan.
You are doing great.

The travel is awful on them.
I'm sure he is very stressed.

The higher altitude will make keeping the humidity up a little more of a challenge.
Keeping live plants will help.

You could dribble a little de-chlorinated water on him. Just to be sure he is well hydrated.
Dribble it on his back and let it collect/puddle under his body.
Dribbling water on works better than touching and moving him.

Keep us posted
