Freshwater stingray doesent seem to be growing, any ideas why??

[Reyert99]

I got a freshwater stingray, I got him back in may and he has yet to grow in size, eats healthy and is active. Just has yet to grow, any ideas why??

 

[StiffMeister]

what is your feeding regime and water change regime?

 

[Reyert99]

I change the water once a week because he lives with a few other fish, and he is fed twice a day. Loves dew worms and ghost shrimp

Try feeding some of those Nice CANADIAN Night Crawlers They work wonders
when trying to bulk up or grow out. Also try getting him a more
varied diet, including Market prawn, muscles, cut up fish and if possible
onto a pellet.
I don't believe ghost shrimp are very nutritious.

Looks thin to me. Might have parasites if it's eating but not puttin on weight.
Hope it gets fatter
