Whiching Ray diet?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have the same problem with my male laticep. He only eats worms and nothing else. A real pain. So i make a nls slurry everyonce in a while and inject some nls into the worm.
 
No luck I soak the shrimp in chop up worms for 15 mins they jump on it as soon as they relized that it shrimp they spit it back out. Screw it I'll just keep on feeding night crawlers as long as their fat and eating a lot I'm happy.

I'll give up for now. The pair that I got bein really great rays they came along way. When I first got them in
They were so skinny the hip bone, rib cage where show big time. The tails look thin. The bad thing was that they didnt start eating until 2 weeks after i got them They were barely eating black worms. It was a miracle. I for sure they were going to die . After a month or so they started to pick up weight. Then they started to eat night crawler and now their healthy fat. The male is tame as a puppy he eat right out of my hand. The girl a little shy. I'll post pictures of them soon.
 
EAT OPR DIE thats my rules only a foolish fish will starve to death when it is offered food every day
i have use this method with lots of expencive fish and never had a fish die yet
my kids hate peas but if i just them peas everyday im sure after less than a week they would be eatting them
 
Consider making small batches of unflavored gelatin with the worms in it. Add minced shrimp, squid, whatever into the gelatin along with the worms.
There a some threads here in the ray section discussing gelatin based foods. -FM
