No... Not even close to bones showing... Like I said it looks healthy but just not growing. I'm going to hit a Walmart tonight and see if they have some worms...
I've noticed the most rapid growth on one of my three hystrix now it eats massivore, if you can eventually get pellets into the diet you'll be away, mine just took to pellets but sadly the other two are proving hard to bresk

have you tried carnivore? massivore looks like it will be too big for your retic atm.

also, i find carnivore more accepted to fish whilst pellet training, even though its meant to be just the smaller version of massivore.

i agree, for me personally, i get the best growth rate when small rays are on a quality pellet.

OK... I'm trying cut up worms with no luck so far... He will swim over fast but then spook out and swim away. I have tons of massivore. I can make it smaller.
