motoro pup!

[shacklock]

i've got a motoro pup that seems pretty healthy although it hasn't been eating as much as it is supposed to be, i've tried feeding it with ghost shrimps but they'll just end up dead as the pup apparently kills the shrimp for fun i think, nibble on market prawns but won't eat the whole piece. it likes swimming around especially on the top of the tank, as much as i enjoy it swimming around but i'm still quite skeptical as its feeding patterns might cause it to be sick and it appears a little pale (might be thinking too much)

Mine eating blood worm, not to much.

first thing i think of when a ray is swimming at the top alot is theres not enough oxygen

hmm yea think i should try blood worms as their staple diet at the moment, i got a pretty high powered air pump thou and my tank isn't big, 4ft?

I think this will be down to water quality, a healthy rays will eat like a pig.

Test, using a new test kit and NOT dip strips for PH, Ammonia, Nitrite and Ammonia and then report back.

You also need to let us know what filtration you use and what your water change regimes are.
