which pellet do u feed ur rays:

Hikari carnivore
Hikari massivore
cichlid gold
other

you can state why u chose a certain one over the others.

i feed my rays Hikari Carnivore, im wondering if one of the other choices is better. is there something better that i can find at my LFS?
 
i like sinking carnivore for my rays because the can swallow wthout chewing them so there is no mess. they grow way faster on pellets than anything else!
 
I feed both massivore and carnivore but in limited quantaties. I find that my filters need to be cleaned more often when feeding them. I also notice a bit of a stench when feeding them. Carnivore to me also seems to stain the water a bit.
As far as growth goes my rays that eat the pellets mostly seem to have a good growth rate and allways appear in good health but they would probably be the same if shrimp was there main source.
 
compaired to some other members who feed pellets i know my female motoro has grown faster then thiers, on a mainly shrimp only diet, i switch it over to worms and silversides every now and then but for the most part .... However my tank is larger

how big is your female getting to be?

Mine has not grown much in the last 9 months, she has been pregnant for that long and is on a pellet diet with occasional shrimp and smelt.
