well its just a guess, maybe someone with more experience can confirm/disprove ?
It sounds resonable to be, so i guess i can live with that for now. As long as no one tells me its from some deadly thing that will probably stress my ray to death.
 
I've noticed the redness, sometimes, can be a sign of stress. When a ray gets feisty during transport, or is suddenly startled by a cat leap-attacking the glass (don't ask...) I've observed that they redden a bit. It has never lasted very long with my rays, though, but I figured that it was worth mentioning.

Yep, 8 tigers. And i still want more. I feed a mixture of earthworms, defrosted market shrimp, krill, anchovies once in a while, and pellets. I have a seperate freezer downstairs in the basement that only has food for them lol. Never posted a pic of them yet. I dont think ive even taken a picture of my fish except for my retic as im not really a camera guy. I hate being in pictures pretty much avoid cameras lol. Maybe when i need to build my mega tank to house then all together ill take some pictures.
 
ive starved for over 2 weeks.... IMO all comes back to rule number one from the KISS thread.... but most people panic after 2 days...

LOL, ive starved enough rays so im still not panicking quite yet. getting kinda nervous though cuz tomorrow would make it exactly a month since the last time shes eaten. Never had to go past 2 weeks on any rays before and this is twice the amount of time.
 
So its 3 days past 6 weeks, should I still keep going? The tail has obviously slimmed down a bit, but I still can't see the hip bones.

Maybe some marinated pellets mixed with some night crawlers will do the trick. Hell yea thats a long time, its 3 times as long as any other ray ive starved.
