I’m buying a baby stingray from my local fish store in 3 days. They’ve had him for about 2 weeks and it wouldn’t eat but finally today I told the guy to try a silverside and he ate it so I’m happy that he ate. But idk how often I should feed him. I piece everyday or every other day. I don’t want to over feed him.

What species of ray? You’ll want to feed a variety of small seafood items: silversides krill, clam, squid tentacles, etc. I feed baby rays daily, and then remove uneaten food. Weird thing about sharks and rays, their waste products are different then bony fishes (Urea versus ammonia). The result is that you should monitor your ammonia and nitrite for a few weeks after adding this ray, just to be safe.
