can anyone now tell me y my singray now has a dent in his forehead, plus he was burned by the heater think that he finally ate not sure, but now iam worried aout the dent

The two ways you can tell when a ray is too skinny

1. Pelvic bones showing

2. Dent in the forehead

If you see the dent he is very skinny and will need to start eating soon to survive

dang so iam screwed cause he hasn' ate in 3 weeks, but the dent wasn't there yesterday

 

[johno27]

It just means he is getting skinnier from not eating.

I have been following your troubles with him and I know you are doing everything you can to get him to eat. Just keep offering him whatever food he seems most interested in and keep the water as clean as you can to promote healing. I wish I had better advice for you but I don't

ty johno27 ya i have tried everything i even bought feeders but i never buy them so i doubt he will even eat them even if he wasn't sick

 

[johno27]

Np man, I really feel for you it must be heart wrenching

I hope it all works out well

hmmm still not eating, maybe crushed live crickets. well ill keep my fingers crossed for.

wow good idea i will go to the store tomorrow for the crickets iam willing to try anything right now iam about tempted to snatch him up and put a rubber band on his tail and force feed him somehow, ya johnno27 it is cause i have had him 9 to 10 months now and lots of money into him and if he dies i don't know where to get another one for a cheap price i paid 250 for him, wish i had some fish eggs

 

[Gshock]

We're at crickets and nobody cares to mention the best bet, worms?

 

[scb56055b]

i tried worms, live blood worms, shrimp, ghost shrimp, rozen shrimp, live feeders, frozen blood worms, nothin is working
