that's about right . . . also, try frozen tilapia. it's cheaper and you get more for your buck, on a dollar-per-pound basis. plus, the nutritional value is similar.
I doubt your rays will eat them now. I have never kept retics but have kept a lot of other rays. The normal transition I have noticed is black worms or ghost shrimp, then worms or frozen shrimp, and then the scallops and tilapia (or other fish types). I have never seen a ray go for frozen fish without converting them over to it. I have seen them eat live fish right off the bat but not dead.
