Protozoa, but it's okay?

No, in general keeping for 4 weeks is not really needed.

what he as treated for initially?
if lots of protozoa present u would treat even if no symptoms are not there and especially if it is WC frog.

I didn't think 4 weeks of quarantine post treatment would be too long when the protozoa is still present. If it all came back clear, I'd say go for it, but I would think this guy is still at risk with the vet saying there was a lot.

what I meant was that you don't need to keep in qt after treatment is done and test come back ok. But in Elly case as i said I would opt for repeat treatment, depending on what was initial cause and current results.

Sorry, I see the "in general" that I didn't notice before. Sometimes I read to quickly and not carefully enough when at work.

His poops have become solid...but I'm still wary of putting him in the permanent tank and possibly contaminating it. If he's showing no symptoms in a couple weeks should I have the vet treat him anyway?

That is a question to ask your vet, it's hard to advise not knowing what a frog was treated for, what meds, dosage, protocol was used, what were fecals findings before and after the treatment.

Elly, what kind of Metro did you use on him, injectable? That's the type dripped on the back right? How much does Bonk weigh and how much med did the vet say to use on him? My treatment for my frogs' coccidia (injecting wax worms with Metro and feeding them to the frogs) isn't really working out. Thinking about using the drip method with the injectable Metro for my guys too, but wondering about the effectiveness after reading your post
