Stuck with a Motoro...will this work long-term?

He said he was feeding 3x nightcrawlers 2-3x a week. I assume nightcrawlers aren't a very balanced diet and that may not be much food for a large fish.

3 night crawlers 3x a week! SMH! Should have been twice a day 7 days a week at least

Wow, good to know, I am going to have to start feeding more often myself!

Doesn't have to be twice a day 7 times a week but that is definitely low.

From the picture the Ray does appear to be healthy

How do I tell M or F?

Male has claspers, i.e. extensions to the fins at the base of the tail, F on the right, M on the left

Female?

Looks like it, does it ever swim up to the top, you need a clear view of the underside, that's the best way to determine sex

My wife said "it swims up the side all day, but now it won't". lol, of course it doesn't now that I want a picture. I will get one next time I see its underside.

This is my male at 5 yrs old, looks like you might have a female though.

What type of catfish is that in the back? Raphael?
