    Hmm, i would quarantine it and monitor faeces. If they are runny then it could be parasites but they can usually be treated cheaply if you suspect it, there's plenty of recommended treatments and dosages online

    I've been watching him, he hasn't pooped at all since he stopped eating.

    Okay, I put him in a large plastic bin, since I don't have another tank. I put a styrofoam bowl with a hole in there for a hide and a shallow ceramic dish in there for water. He immediately moved into the hide after I set him down.

    Treat the frog and every few days disgard the styrofoam and disinfect and rinse the tank so it doesn't get reinfected
