Use tongs or a hemostat of some kind. Many pacs (including mine) don't like hands in the tank and seeing my hands alone can disturb them. A tong-trained pac is more likely to take different foods as well.

Also don't force a frog out of its hole. No reason to stress it like that. It will eat when it is ready to eat, not when you are ready for it to eat.
