weird ray

[bluedempsey]

i just got a small motoro ray.. on 7/19/05
anyway it is eatting but not like the others
the others are eatting krill,night crawlers, shrimp...
but this one is only eattiing formula 2 marine pellets
has anyone else had a ray like this?

my only concern is it has to eat a s**tload of pellets to even look
fat not like the others. do you see any problems in the future?

I am very surprised that it is choosing pellets over the live worms.

On the upside, the pellets are packed with vitamins.

Have you offerred it live blackworms? Most rays will not turn them down.

That would be awesome to have a ray that eats them

wow.. tat is cool. i think it is hard to find a ray which will feed on pellets

so jus continue with this diet

coz pellets usually pack with vitamin and minerals.. lastly. it dun contain any diease at all

cheers and post pics of ur ray?
