    Can you mix species of rays? Is there a male to female ratio?

    Tried searching for this info but didn't really find anything. I thought I would ask some ray keepers on here. My first question is can you mix ray species? The exact species I'm looking at are retics and hystrix. Also is there a male to female ratio that works best? I've seen a lot of people...

    Sick motoro stingray

    I've had my stingray for a little over one month. He's been acting fine up until a few days ago. He hangs out by the filter pump pretty much all day as of recently. He normally swims all around the tank or stays by the heater. A week ago I notice some fungus on his barb, but it has not been...

    Marble and Mini Marble Difference

    Is there such thing as a mini marble? Are all marbles considered mini marbles? If not, what is the size difference between the two? Thanks in advance.

    New Ray tank, Marble male, Hybrid female

    Hey Guys, I was a member of MFK years ago, got into saltwater for awhile and my urge to keep and breed freshwater rays got the best of me. I just finished my tank and here are some pics. I have no idea what my Hybrid is mixed with, and insight would be great!

    What do you recommend first?

    Building a tank around 320 gallons. sorry American haha Will have a 75 gallon K1 Fluidized Sump. Anyway I am going the Motoro Ray route, but I'm also getting a ripshaw catfish which I've heard grow slower then stingrays. Which should I buy first to make it safest. At the smaller size I would...

    Freshwater Stingray

    Hey guys, I recently got baby motoro stingray like a week back. He's hardly eating and is housed with an albino bichir and an Asian arowana. He's housed in a 180 gal. The ph, nitrites, ammonia and nitrates are perfect. The bottom substrate is white sand. This morning I noticed a mark on his...

    I think its a Motoro, but the spots. ID please.

    Hello all, I have purchased this guy for $175 from a LFS, the storeowner couldnt tell me which kind of ray it is but said he has had him there for almost 2 weeks. I have had him now for 5 days, the ray is eating bloodworms and slivers of shrimp. The ray is only about 5 inches across, eats well...

    looking for some rays for my tank.....

    Ok he is the short story..... not sure that many remember me here but used to be very very active in this forum. Have had rays for the last 15 years. Was one of the first to ever breed retic rays (17 pups shipped nationally). At one point we had 9 adult rays in our 600 gallon tank. Over the...

    Low appetite

    Are there some rays that just don't pig out? All my rays are pigs except for 1. She just eats enough. I've had her for over 4 months and her appetite hasn't really increase. she is not as active like my other rays. is that a possible reason?

    Stingray substrate or not

    I just want to please know how many of you use bare bottom tanks for your stingrays and how your rays react to it? I am thinking of going bare bottom for multiple reasons. I see that a lot of people do it, but every time I ask in the groups on facebook I get chastised for it.

    Here's a little update of black/yellow/brown

    It's been a couple months and the BD/aparacio is feeding very aggressively. Looks like pregnant females sometimes. The tiger is stuck on eating only live and is out gunned by the other two for food. Still looking healthy with no protruding hips though. The BD male juvenile still has small spots...
