I feed nightcrawlers and someone said you can give them coffee grounds to plum them up. Will it harm the rays?
 
Never heard of that, but it might give your ray a buzz.
 
That's an old fishing trick. You really should purge the worms before feeding rays. (keeps the tank cleaner too).

Purge as in make em crap all over the place...

I saw on Dirty jobs they feed worms, bread, just throw a little piece on top of the dirt in the worm container. should be set! they like the yeast?!!? i think its the yeast atleast
 
I feed my worms coffee grounds and corn meal. I think I'd feel safer feeding them corn meal if I was feeding them to a ray.

OOPS...
 
I'm not saying it WILL harm them. I mean I feed my worms to my fish and so far I haven't had any problems. I'd just be more careful with rays.
 
Yeah...but they're RAYS...black gold...texas tea...you know what I mean. Now I'm gonna have to give those worms to the pbass. I'm not taking any chances. Speaking of nightcrawlers though, I get mine from Wal-mart. Great price! 24 count for $2.88!!! I'm not supposed to shop there but just cant resist.
 
Another place to look for some is try to find someone that sells them for composting. You can get about a pound for around $20.
FYI - 1LB = roughly 1,000 worms. ;)
