Steve - thanks man

Tyson - lovely piece. It was going for 400 as a juvy. I dont see the before picture
but the after pic is niiice. How big is it now?? I will try to sunbathe it. Thanks for the tip!

Jack - it was labeled as a tiger but i wasnt really sure. Tyson and David confirmed it.

EZ - thanks bro. its got a nice long tail. Its not perfect though. i think its cut off a bit at the tip. Im not sure since i havent really taken the time to stare at it yet. :)


Its still getting used to in the tank but its ate 3-4 nightcrawlers yesterday.

thanks bro. I was aware of the fact that they are sensitive than most rays and
that they are fussy eaters. I really dont want a fussy ray but when i asked the shopkeeper to feed her worms, she started attacking on the worm before it hit the ground.

It was also eating straight out of the bag while acclimating the water. Also it was at the shop for more than 6 mos so its already used to being in captivity. At least i know its healthy. :)

Im excited on bringing out her coloration. Right now shes in a divider by herself. I would pump her up for a week or 2 and introduce her to the crew soon after. Thanks again!

hmm...try to feed her more with live shrimps and fishes as she is very skinny. once she is eating well, her colour will comes out by itself!
