How do you tell when your ray may have paracites or any other problems like paracites? My rays are all very healthy, but I want to know exactly when they may have something wrong with them I may need to fix. Any thought would be appreciated thanks

Look at there feces.. if its white and stringy then you prob have parasites. Suppose to look like a curled up earthworm.
 
Watch for feeding, if they are feeding and not gaining weight and actually appear to be losing weight, there is a good chance of parasites also.
 
OK so what do I do if there are paracites? I don't think my rays have any problems I just want to know everything ahead of time.. To make sure I can take care of any problems ASAP..

Do a subforum search in this section. There are about 25+ threads with good information that can not be covered in a single thread. Make sure to spell "parasites" correctly though.
