he ate black worms and some ghost shrimp today. ima try blood worms once he is settled in.
 
As long as your filters can cope just pound him with bloodworms 5 or 6 times a day.
The ray should look like it has a big rear end.
When viewed from the side the back of the ray will be higher than the middle part when the ray is full.
Ignore people who say bloodworms are not nutritious. I have saved plenty of starved retics feeding only bloodworms.
Apart from skinny it looks healthy for a retic. Good bright colours. Just keep an eye on your water with extra feeding
 
will do right now he is on black worms, and he loves em lol. will try to ween him off once he puts on some weight.
 
nice retic,is it a male or female?
 
Nice little guy. Why is it that when retics are "fat" it just looks like they have a huge backside. Where as other rays (motoro's etc.) Their whole body gets fat and healthy.
