Hi guys. Im new to the forum and please excuse my English. I just bought 2 rays from a store. Both are black diamond stingray. One is eating everything I give him and the other one is only eating pellets. They are both around 6”. How can I get the other one to eat shrimp? Please give me some advice. Thanks everyone

From the sounds of it most people would be stoked to have that problem.

I dont see any problems on raising small rays on pellets only. As long as it is an high quality pellet its all good. I currently have two mantillapups that refuses everything except pellets and i dont bother feeding them anything else atm. And got two pregnant females that always refused pellets but now only takes pellets.

I prefer shrimps because I have the other fish in there take shrimps. I feed them a mixture of shrimps and pellets now. Hopefully he will eat some in the future.
