    Yes, get one of those plastic kritter keepers, medium sized or large might work too for 1.5" baby. Get more Exo earth or plantation soil that you need to expand with conditioned water. Then put some in, not a lot, no more then 2", shallow water dish with the same conditioned water, plant of sorts, to create a hide. Cover part of the top with something., cover 3 sides with anything not see through. What is home humidity? If it is bad you can wet a towel and out on top of a cage. It is really try and see. Don't overdo though, aim for 75%.

    now all exo earth from tank he is in, take out and let it dry, you will use it later when you need to change the substrate, you will add dechlor water and it will be all right.

    You can put plastic cage inside the big one, sometimes it helps maintaining temps and humidity.
    Please when you get a chance post a pic of a frog himself. Before transfering him into his new home do a bath for him. Warm water ( same conditioned one), water level no higher then frogs chin, keep him in there for about 20 min. Warm water 80-84F. It will give you enough time to clean the tank he is in now and to set up a new one.

    oh and one more thing, when touching a frog, transfering him, etc, wash your hands and use non powdered disposable gloves, or after washing hands well, rinse them with conditioned water. Oils on your skin are better be in no contact with a frog.

    good luck!
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
