Hi all I've just bought a 7inch Marbled motoro yesterday. Till today It has not fed at all even when I fed the remaining rays with tubiflex worms. It looked very restless, and the sides of the ray seems so lifeless that it will float up and down. Death curled? How do I accelerate the stablising process? I dun want to lose this handsome MM.:(

Possibly death curl post a pic and don't rush anything. I would have isolated that ray before putting it in with the rest of them. I think new ray should be separated till you treat for parasites and get the ray eating. Just my opinion
 
Keep the tank dark...
 
warm dark tank.... some rays can take a few weeks to start eating...
