Why is my new African dwarf frog not eating, quiet, and floating?

Question

hi, I bought an African dwarf four days ago. He is not eating and he hang or float at the top corner of the habitat all the time. Before he enter into the tank I prepare it for five days. I have been testing the water everyday and all parameters are good. He doesn't seem to have any white spots, but is very quite and haven't eating since arrive. Thank you very much.

Confirm proper environmental parameters. Frogs are very sensitive to changes in water chemistry and water temperature. Offer food every other day. ADFs are small and don't need to eat much. Feed as much as he will eat in 5-10 minutes. You can offer frog pellets, frozen or live brine shrimp or frozen bloodworms. Frozen beef heart can be used as an occasional treat. Remove any uneaten food promptly to prevent fouling the water.
