bamboo shrimp will eat pretty much any fish food you can think of. as for the frog, i know pet stores around me feed black worms, super worms, crickets, earthworms and nightcrawlers, however it depends on the type of frog.
"bamboo" shrimp are filter feeders. Make sure there's a strong current for them to get the most food.
Bamboos are filter feeders, they will hang by the current to feed. Its also wise that they be in a tank thats been running for awhile, or else there wont be enough food for them and they starve.
bamboo shrimp just LOOK like bamboo, they don't need it at all. They need strong currents and food for filter-feeding invertebrates.
Your frog will EAT the bamboo shrimp.
Bamboo shrimp needing bamboo is a PetSmart FAIL.

when i had my bamboo shrimp, i had a tiny powerhead to move water and i used hikari fry food for it. my shrimp molted twice for me before i got rid of it. good luck.

Bamboo shrimp are filter feeders as mentioned. They prefer a well established tank with good flow. You can supplement them with green water or ground commercial foods. The frog (if ADF) will do well on a varied diet of frozen worms. I fed mine with a turkey baster and alternated between brine shrimp, blood worms, tubifex, and blackworms. ACF's should not be housed with small fish or shrimp as they are more agressive feeders.
