Didn't want to derail the "best pellet food" thread but it got me thinking.

I've got a couple of new rays I'm intentionally overfeeding a bit to fatten, but I'm almost done with that process.

They eat massivores like crazy (seem to like them even as much as live worms!) and I was just wondering, how many massivore pellets would you feed per day per ray?

They're about 8.5 and 10.5''.
 
i tried asking this a month or so ago and got no answer. i'm still curious cuz this guys a friggin pig. he's 12"-12 1/2" and could down 2 dozen night crawlers in one sitting if i let him. i kinda just started giving him 8 pellets in the AM 8 in the early evening and 8 at night. but he eats a bunch of shrimp and talipa that hits the ground that the other fish miss.
 
My Leo will eat them like a kid eats candy. I think if the tank was full of pellets he would eat his way out in no time. My wife calls him Fatty. Great question though. I have a hard time as I'm trying to get other rays to eat food also but this Guy is a Hoover massivore eating machine. Sad for the not so aggressive eating rays.
