Stingray Question

[thebrohem]

Settle a bet: my friend claims that you can convert freshwater teacup stringrays from freshwater to not only brackish water, but to full marine. I said i didnt think so, maybe to brackish, but i doubt to full marine. What say you, i really dont know. For the record, there is actually a bet of free lunch for the winner so i would like to win said bet!

Thanks everyone.

you can, BUT they do not live as long as they normally do in saltwater,, and you cant actually convert them to what we normally keep our sg at around 1.024,, it actually has to be lower than 1.008 i believe (could be off). again brackish will keep them alive longer, more salt/shorter life span
