What do you feed your stingrays?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Is it ok to feed a ray a diet of stricktly nightcrawlers? Ive only had him a few weeks and thats all i can get him to consistently eat besides blood worms. He doesnt seem like he gets full from the blood worms but a few nightcrawlers and he seems fat and happy. Alot of people seem to get their rays on pellets. At what piont should i try this? He rejects tilapia and other white fish.
 
Can't advise on pellets but my rays have no issues with frozen seafood... maybe try to mix them together with their fav food for a start?

Anyone have this experience ? Asking cause I don’t want the color of mine affected .

what i read all over the internet is if the color enhancing additive is in the pellet then it will cause the BD spots to turn creamy.. so far no one say otherwise

for market prawns, it's still being debated... some says it will cause the spots to turn creamy some say it's the genes... i tend to believe the latter more

i have 2 BD with creamy spots and 1 with whiter spots... all fed on same diet and same parents

Bought the medium pellets cause I like the size of the carnivore pellets over the massivore pellets. Feel they have less waste. The pellets were super tiny. Waste of $23. The large weren’t sized much larger. Could probably fit ten of these pellets in one massivore pellet
