Every number in this card is at official 1× rates, with the fastest food. Taming speed and food consumption multipliers change all of it, and most servers are not on official — the calculator at the top of this tab takes your rates, a Sanguine Elixir, and every other food this creature will eat.
Effectiveness is what decides the bonus levels: every unit of food eaten costs a slice of it, so the food that needs the fewest units finishes at the highest level. That is why kibble is worth the trouble — not that it is much faster, but that it is fewer feedings.

Passive
All the Araneo's attacks apply a Webbed debuff, stacking up to 5 stacks and 4 seconds of duration each.
Each stack increases damage taken by 5%, reduces Movement Speed, and attack speed. Also, at max stacks, the target cannot jump or sprint, and after death, the affected target will spread the webbed debuff to other nearby valid targets.
Whenever the Araneo is grappled to a surface or Web Line, it gains Ambush buff, which, after detach lasts for 5 seconds and during that time Araneo will inflict 50% extra damage and max Webbed stacks on its next attack.
Whenever a target dies with Webbed debuff stacks, its body gives 
Silk if it is harvest.
