    Unsure of your total setup but there is no way I would ever throw food into a tank especially worms and not know if they were consumed, I think worms can survive up to 8hrs under water but they can swim and are adapted to hide quickly which means place's your frogs cannot reach,but then they will decay rapidly! ACF are supposed to be hunters but sometimes I wave the worm several time's on its nose before the bite then the frantic consume, If I were in your shoe's the size of tanks irrelevant all the need is 1 shelter and make it a large bridge instead of cavern so you can see them" remove all gravel and add live plants which my frogs love to hang on* will post link to plant types after* then starve them very very slowly, each time tap the corner your intended to feed with finger nails* will take lots of effort and weeks of patience but these guys will get the drift very very quickly* Its so funny all I have to do now is switch of my filter and there on an aggressive hunt when they see my hand with treats they know its good
