hope i wasnt harsh i just dont know why my country is so dum as to not have some where that sells worms
k i think she hates me she. when i bought her i saw her eat and have the same thing she ate in the store its like a earth worm pellet so i tryed a little bit of it and she took it the second it hit the bottom chewed for like 3seconds the spat it out so i thought it might be to hard for her so i soked it the tryed again now she refuses to eat them ????? is she retarted
no, they're very picky eaters, especially when young. you should have done your research before picking it up, to be honest. you have absolutely no worms of any type there? what about other things like superworms (reptile type food) or larvae of sorts? try shrimp, silversides, tilapia, etc. even after a year, mine won't touch anything but earthworms and when they were younger they ate blackworms and ghost shrimp. at 8+ inches now, blackworms and ghost shrimp do not sate their appetite, so until i can wean them onto market shrimp, tilapia and silversides, and pellets, it's earthworms.
she might just start eating once she gets hungry enough. who's to say.

well she ate a earth worm pellet today and i did my reasearch and i saw it eat in the pet store so i knew i ate i called every place i could think and all i found was a guy who sells frozen blood worms but i asked the guy i got the ray from and he said when he first got the ray it only ate shrimp and he weand it to pellets so it should eat shrimp wish me luck
GET THE BLOOD WORMS great food and perfect for them however they can't live on it forever. Shrimp and squid can also works. Water temperature? This can lead to a lot of feeding problems. They will eat but not much and die. Temp should be 78 - 87.
This is horrible advice! Bloodworms are not great food for them at all. Too small.
87 is a bit too hot. I wouldn't go above 84.
