Hi Everyone

I Hope you had a great christmas and best wishes for a great 2011


I had 2 baby motoro stingrays born in my 15,000 gallon tank Dec 13.

Richard went in and caught them both a few days after they were born.

They stuck themselves to the floor of the tank and he had to use a spoon to get them un stuck so he could get the net under them.

Catching the first one along the 18 foot side of the tank

How do you catch the fish when you need to re-house them or remove a aggressive specimen? I imagine you jump in with scuba gear ?

Just curious!

I remove about 10,000 gallons and bring the level down to 24" give or take and then my friends climb in and either do work in the tank or catch fish. Then they hand the fish through the window openings to others who move them to tanks or ponds.
