Good afternoon folks. This is my first time posting, so please bear with me if I dont get everything right the first time off.
Anyhow, has anyone here ever kept a Stingray?
They told me at the LFS that these guys like to bury themselves...ok so he's got the sand to do that in....except he's pretty active and has been for the last week.
Eating is no problem, he gets shrimp, scampi tails and crab...........
 
STINGRAYS ARE PRETTY ACTIVE FISH. THAT'S WHY YOU NEED A BIG TANK TO HOUSE THESE RAYS.
WHAT SIZE TANK DO YOU HAVE? THE MIN. I BELIEVE IS 200-250. I WANT ONE SOOOOOOOO BAD. THAT WAS MY MAIN REASON FOR GETTING A SALTWATER SET-UP, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THERE WERE FRESH WATER RAYS ALSO. MY TANK IS ONLY 125 SO THAT KILLED ALL OF THOSE PLANS.

At present I have him in a 100 gallon long size, even with live rock at the back he seems to havenough room, plus he nows follows (or the other way around) my Stars and stripes puffer who lasted measured 12". We'll see how he does anyway, but in case I feel he needs a larger home....have somewhere for him!!!
