So I've changed what I'm getting in my tank. I picked out my two sharks but now have some ray questions. Also I'm changing my tank size to a 360 or 425 gallon cyclinder tank.
Fiddler Ray:

It's a nice ray that is read can stay in a 360g tank. I would love to know its feeding habits and compatibility with its tank mates. (Bamboo shark, Epaulette shark, rays I am about to post).
Blue Spotted Ray:

I would like to know compatibility with tank mates, how many recommended gallon, and feeding habits.
Cortez Stingray:

All I need to know is compatibility with tank mates.
Thanks for takin the while to read this and thank you for the answers ;)

So, which is it? A 360 or a 425?

In the great scheme of things, that's not actually a big tank for what you're wanting to put in there. I hope that you have designed some killer filtration system.


I doubt there are any stingray experts on this forum, but I just wanted to chime in and wish you the best.

It's a 425g but the filter I'm working on currently. Good thing I have a huge budget for this expensive project

So you are planning on getting a 425 cylinder tank????

You have to be careful that you do NOT get tankmates that are nippers.......rays need a ALOT of "beach room" and finer sand.......they DO get large.....I had a cortez ray that got to be about 13".....and I ended up donating it to an aquarium....

I know they get big I just hope I find someone with a good experience of rays. I'm just getting the sharks and rays. Why do you think the 425 is too small I can easily upgrade it to a 460 and possibly even a 500 since I and my family members have a lot of money invested in this. About you're cortez what other tank mates wa with him and how many gallons on it. The only thing I worry about is the fiddler it gets big. Do you think 4 rays and 2 sharks is too much for the size?? My cousins had a cortez so I'll get some stuff from them. Thanks for some of that help
