Just curious, will massivore change the color of a Leo's spots (or any black/white ray)? I have seen a few Asian hybrids fed massivore that had yellowish almost orange spots, but being hybrids I wasn't sure if it was in their blood or from the food.
 
Not sure of this but I have seen videos of rays getting massivore and having no effects

No

Just like if I eat carrot I won't turn red

What if carrots were the main part of your diet?

Actually if you eat too many carrots your palms and skin, will turn yellowish/ orange. Too much beta carotene will do this in people. As for the rays I can not answer that.

I was going to say the beta carotene can actually change your color https://umm.edu/health/medical/altmed/supplement/betacarotene

that being said my only rays ive had were a couple henlei with a diet of massivore and frozen and fresh fish and they had some of the whitest spots ive seen on hens so no I dont think thats causing rays spots to discolor
 
If your sole food was carrot nothing else then yes I think it could change skin colour but massivore isn't just one ingredient so probably won't change skin colour I'm no scientist do don't know for sure

I know hikari does have colour enhancers in some foods but they are enhancers not changers
