my new hystrix girls

[Ancient_Fish_Master]

just got em today

IF im not mistaken, those arent hystrix....

I believe those are orbignyi ray, not hystrix...

NEED to get them fat tho....they are VERY VERY skinny

 

[West1]

X2, not Hystrix. Dunno which species though, look nice

Anyone know what they max out at?

 

[ajsmith235]

YEA.... as i looked at them again alil harder, their pelvic bones are showing VERY badly. get them eating, throw nightcrawlers in there NOW!

 

[LBathory]

awesome orbignyi rays. they look great as they grow. Get some weight on them

i have the tank stocked with some ghost shrimp for them, ive seen them eat some i have black worms in the fridge when i try to feed em tomorrow. will try some earthworms too. do i just wash em and cut em?

 

[ajsmith235]

They look big enough to eat whole reg. worms, and probably whole nightcrawlers im sure. Ghost shrimp won't do it. but the worms in! Ghost shrimp have no nutriential value. rinse the worm off and i would put 4-6 nightcrawlers in... prolly cut them in half so that the worms blood will excite them to eat em.... i wouldnt wait until tomorrow...try and get them eating the worm now

[Ancient_Fish_Master]

[Ancient_Fish_Master]
