Normally i will deshell all my prawns before feeding as my rays quite picky and will often leave the shell floating around in tank.

Thus to avoid all the hassle of scooping up the shell i normally just deshell the MP.

Cheers and regards

Just out of curiosity, did the ray actually digest the shell? Or did it just come out as waste? I've seen some users say they leave the shell alone, and others say they eat the shell, so I'm wondering which one is considered the "normal" thing to do.

That would make sense. Though it kind of makes me wonder why the shell sometimes passes through...
