    Hi! Often the problem is just stress. Covering the back and sides is recommended, and you already took care of that. Having a smaller enclosure can help. Another user, Monster, has talked about using a divider in 10 gallon tanks to limit their space so that buying multiple enclosures is unnecessary, an idea I really liked. He could tell you more than I. Sometimes you can convince them them to eat by dragging the food across their toes, under their mouth. Often it takes some time for these frogs to relax and feel comfortable in a new enclosure, and at this point you may have to simply give the frog a little more time. You can try an electrolyte bath, but I'm not sure It's necessary yet(an electrolyte bath is a bath in treated warm 27-28c water mixed with unflavored Pedialyte at a ratio of 10 parts water 1 part Pedialyte.). Monster or another user may have more to add, as well.
    On another note, you will need calcium +Vitamin d3 powder. Calcium is necessary, but without vitamin d3 it isn't metabolized. I'll add anything else if I think if it. Good luck!
