Here are a few pics of the new retic rays i got a couple weeks ago. They arrived in good shape and started eating right away. 2 weeks later and still wont eat anything but worms and ghost shrimp. But gaining weight and very active.
Retics

Retics are finicky with food, as you probably know. There is a sticky (if you haven't seen it already) on breaking rays to new foods. I absolutely love the patterns! Such a snazzy pair, glad to hear they are doing well.
Thank you. They seem to be trying some of the shrimp pellets to night i think in time they will be off live food

Thank you. Its play sand from home depot. They had 2 types im using the one that has low silica content called leveling sand. They seem to love it . I like retics for the long tails. Was looking at antena rays but couldnt find enough info on how hard they are to keep.
