is it possible to over feed?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Rays with a good appetite can pack away alot of food.. even small ones.
 
Rays know when to stop eating. After some time if the food is still their I'll take it out. Leaving food laying around may raise your ammonia.
 
Feed them till they still want one more bite which is about 85% full. This way you can keep them fit and strong.
 
whoa, you have a puffer in there!?! That is a potential danger for not only your stingray, but any other fish!
 
i feed my rays soo much that they cant swim around anymore they only start moving when its feeding time again

get that ray eatting something else apart from night crawlers
 
yea i was worried about the puffer with other fish.... and suprisingly..... my blue gaourri (sp) which is sopose to be really tame.... picked on all the other fish, and the puffer just sits by himself in the corner, he likes eating the earthworms that i put in there before the stingray can get to them, but once again... the ray is in a 55 right now while my 300 is filtering out...im putting some rosyreds in the tank tommorow as a starter fish then in a week im gonna move the ray in there. And before i get my head bitten off.... my lfs wouldnt hold on to him for another two weeks before my tank was ready so i am doing water changes every other day in the 55
