    Hello,
    How long have you had your frog?
    Specifically,where did you purchase it? ( ie pet shop, show )

    Also, take Don's advice. Distilled water is not for the soaking dishes!
    Use distilled for misting ( not the frog) to help boost humidity- if needed.

    This will help to identify possible issues: simply cut / paste/answer the questions:

    to treat a 1 gallon jug of tap water you use 10 drops of tetra fauna for reps and amphibians.I used the bottle that treated 100 gallons that was 3.88oz

    Excessive shedding could be a sign of chytrid infection. This was discussed at thefrog.org some years ago.
