I see you just got these guys over the weekend. It could be ANYTHING. he may not have been healthy to begin with, the stress of being at an expo and then traveling etc. Who knows if he was eating before you got him. Plus not all baby frogs are supposed to live so he may have just been a week one.

I am sorry for your loss, good luck with the other guys.
I think if you post more info on what your care is, enclosure substrate etc. others may be able to give you more advise to help save hte others but I don't think this guy was anything you did.
