I know it is tough to wait, but frogs can go a long time without food. I would wait another few days and make sure the frog is not too stressed out frrom people looking at it and walking by. seems like they have two modes; scared/defensive, and hunting. a frog will be startled usually, when you approach and pour the crix into the tank, but soon as you stand still, the frog will calm and begin chasing crix around. some frogs, specially leopsrds are very quick, skittich and slow to calm down after being disturbed. i'd also do what Col said, also and raise the waterbowl a bit, and also put something flooaty in there like a smidgen of moss, to save the crix from drowning, chances are you will not witness the frogs first meal, those darn leos like to eat in privacy.
