Hey everyone just wanted to share my progress on raising my pair of wc marbles.


Picked up from a local importer/vendor in July 2011. 7"-8" male and 10"-11" female.

Fed them Cali live black worms for the first few weeks then slowly converted them to night crawlers.

Tried starving them to other foods but failed multiple times and they became skinny. Females pelvic bones were showing.

After a few months of continuous power feeding this is how they look today.


13"-14" female. She finally developed a J-lo booty:)

This is my first time raising stingrays. If any experts see anything wrong with them pls let me know.



Thanks for viewing.

they look great!


Thanks guys. The females tail base is near 2" thick. She's eating more aggressively as she grows.

Thanks and yes they still just eating night crawlers. I use to feed the tank once a month quarantined feeder goldfish and the rays eat it but I stopped feeding it cuz I'm worried my Aro will eventually get DE.
