Hello,
I will soon bring Stingray motoro.
Its diameter would be about 12 cm.
People have normal feeding suggestions? How many times a day?
Would love tips and suggestions for growing high quality.
Thank you!

I feed small amounts 6 times a day of carnivore pellets and prawn. A 12cm stingray is a pup and pup's need to be fed at least 2-3 times a day in my opinion because they don't have big fat reserves. When the ray is around 11" I would slow the feeding down.

*again just my opinion and I'm sure other people will chime in

I'm not to sure. From what I know stingrays eat meat so if tetra bits are for carnivores I don't see an issue

If the stingray is wild caught it may take sometime before it eats tetra bits

At 12cm the ray is still young and need food all the time so try tetra bits if it doesn't eat them try blood worm or prawn

Can you show a picture of the ray

I have a special aquarium with only shrimp (Hebrew Srimfsiih write and say, I'm not sure how to express it in English in terms of writing and speaking). I can feed him with Hsrimfsim, I have filled. This type of shrimp "Red Cherry Shrimp"

well the stingray pup should eat cherry shrimp. If not i would try frozen bloodworms (defrosted and rinsed of course)

My pups eat anything cut up small enough for them to chew shrimp, tilapia, carnivore pellets, silver sides, earthworms, oysters, mussels, cod. I would offer different things if you keep good water they eat like pigs.

What is your tank size and filter? Any tankmates with the ray? I feed my pups twice a day. Mainly hikari carnivore pellets. Is the ray wild caught?
