motoro stingray ?

[EBJD]

not gettin a stingray, but:

-would a 70" x 48" pond be okay

-would 25% wc weekly be okay

-could I just feed it sometimes earthworms, n massivore as the main diet(maybe as the only food?) with the occasional frozen bloodworm as a treat

-whats the min. amount of feedings per day?

-all of these ? pertains to the motoro

not gettin a stingray, but:

-would a 70" x 48" pond be okay Yes for a while but its a little on the short side.

-would 25% wc weekly be okay No not really, 50% weekly would be better .... really just depends on how much filtration you have.

-could I just feed it sometimes earthworms, n massivore as the main diet(maybe as the only food?) with the occasional frozen bloodworm as a treat

Small rays 2 times a day, adults one time a day, feed as much as they will eat. If you can get them to eat massivore then yes.... but it will take some time getting them use to it before they accept it on a regular basis. You will go through alot of earthworms first.
-whats the min. amount of feedings per day? See above

-all of these ? pertains to the motoro

Why would you want to do the minimum amount of feeding? that should be the last thing your asking. It seems like you want a ray but only want to feed it as little as possible without killing him/her. If you do a little searching, most if not all your questions will be answered.

i feed mine earthworms and mussel meat. and once a week treat them to a few cubes of frozen blood worm, which they like to graze on.

and to regards to how much to feed. i feed my pair every other day.because in the wild they are oppurtunist feeders and maybe if you feed them every day will in the long time get health problems. other ray keepers may say im wrong. but, thats how ive always fed mine since they were pups.
also twice weekly water changes is a must. they will appreciate the freshwater. and in return for your dedication, reward you with nice deep intense spots.
