Hello again, its now been 4 weeks since i got her. She is eating well, about twice a day, also wheneever there is food in the tank :Dgood sign.

from the pics, she is gainign weight, the buldges around tail, and also around head. But the little space between these to areas is not as "filled out" .... (hope i am making sense here)

Should I be worried?

Or will that area fill out in time? (i've not seen many full size retics, so can't compare)

Appreciate any advice. :)

I'm gonna wait till she gets an inch bigger before trying to convert to massivore and carnivore pellets.
 
dont stress over it. she looks like mine, just a mini version of it anyway. there will always be a gap b/w the two bulges. other than that she looks healthy. very pretty [=
 
there are a few members who have full grown retics. i would not switch to a pellet food until it gets pretty healthy.
 
start offering a few pellets with what ever the ray is eating...
 
She eats: (all frozen and defrosted)
muscle
prawn
bloodworm
Brineshrimp


Very occasionally , tetra prima sinking granules

she tends to taste massivore but loses interest quickly. I have not fed any live yet, as my other half won't let be bring worms or similar into the house!!!
