Veggies for a stingray?

[Energy]

My male Leo has eaten every single plant I had in my system(which was a lot). After that he then went after some bamboo I had growing and chewed it right down to shreds. Then I put in a few more plants and watched him suck them right off the bottom and eat them whole. None of my other stingrays show any interest in plants. I am thinking about supplementing Nori or lettuce in his diet.
Any one have any experience or suggestions for a leaf eating stingray?

It would be nice to hear of others and if I need to supplement his diet.

It doesnt seem to have done him any harm i think you'd be fine to give him some greens lol but id wait for other members comments too, also lettuce is nutritonally poor as its mostly made up of water so id use romane lettuce as that is more nutritional.

Remember to "blanche" any plants that normally grow above ground as fish are not designed to break down the cellulose that makes plants stand upright out of water.

I have heard of people feeding potatoes to rays before

I may try some Nori and see if it gets a feeding response. I am guessing the potatoes were cooked.

I feed all of mine with spirulina pellets, and they like it. Also use New Era Algae Pellets and New Era Cichlid African.

Along with spriulina, mine will often take Mazuri gel diet, which has a heavy veggie component to it.
