Hi , Miles , potamotrygon, itaituba2003 , darcy12877
Thanks for you guys instruction.

- I will try to increase temperature to 31 degree celcius and stop adding black water
- His belly looks normal with white color and no red . By the way thank you for your tip of adding salt 3 grams / litre to cure red belly .
- I can't see any red bloodworm around but it probably some left under .

He's a bit skinny, but at least his eating! The temp should be acceptable for mine is the same right now. Do water changes...

bro your ray doesnt seem like eating coz its tail (rear part) look like higher than its eyes... can you get to see the bottom of its disc? I suspect something happen on the bottom... Stopping doing WCs and adding black water is an good idea...
Good luck and keep us update

I think your doing a good job, most of the time if a ray is in serious pain or could possibly die they wouldn't be eating. So atleast its eating, I would keep doing waterchanges and stick with the salt in the water. Btw how big is your tank?

Can you explain why adding black water extract is a good idea?

I would disagree, as would most raykeepers..
