You guys are lucky - neither of my hystrix would touch any pellets massivore included. They literally run when I put the pellets in.
Shrimp
krill
canadian nighcrawlers
squid
clams
black worms
Super red worms (I have a worm farm)
blood worms

That's a heck of a variety! Do you find it hard to feed other things after a good black worm feeding?
 
Quick question... Have you found any packages larger than 2.2 lb (1kg) for mass or gold? Or larger than 4.4 for sturgeon????

In uk we can get sturgeon 4.4 at reasonable price but I have yet to find the 2.2lb bags of massivore, biggest massivore 380g bags and that's £20 a bag and some places £30 a bag

I feed Hikari sinking carnivore pellets, shrimp, squid, scallop, tilapia, frozen krill, silversides, and worms on rare occasion.
 
mega.pngI was just thinking about the 10mm NLS pellets, anyone feed those? Seems like a good size also, I got some 2mm pellets a while ago for different fish I have and was very disapointed when they showed up, those things are so small only good for fish under 4inches and I dont have too many of those. Do you find the carnivore pellets too small and the massivore better size pellets?

Pellets and a bit of prawn

The pellets are working out a bit expencive now this is the pellets mix I do all in one tub

2 packs of hikari massivore £19 per pack
4 packs of hikari sinking cichlid gold £30 for the 4
1 x 2kg bag of hikari sturgeon med size £30

That's £100 on pellets which last just 6 weeks

And prawn £3 per bag 6 bags per month

Giant meal worms 1/2 kg £19 lasts 1 month

Add that all up to feed 5 big rays a large Asian aro 6 big tiger /dats a large tigrinus and it costs alot to feed large rays

Just over $100 per month for T1... Not too bad considering his stock and high quality food.

How do your rays like the superworms?? Mine swim to the top to get hand fed. They can't get enough! And, I gotta imagine that superworms are hugely beneficial to our rays, nutritionally.

£100 = $161 at the moment
