Have any of you guys kept the diamond shaped one cause I had one and it was doing fine. Eating and all and than one day I woke up and he was upside down and dead. It just seemed odd so I thought that maybe they were not as hardy as people say.
Tank for Atlantic Sharpnose or Blacktip Reef Sharks

only one guy on here that I know that has kept the blue ray for any length of time and thats roastreef. I'm going to get 6 of them from a distributor sometime soon and give it a shot, and by the way I believe roastreef has the common blue rays not the diamonds
Is there a hardier choice on Rays that I could keep in the tank with my bamboos? Simply because I'm not too picky on what kind of ray I would like but I would really like one that is not much of a handful to keep.
The best sw rays for home aquarists - are those of the round rays of genus Urobatis. These are the California Round, the Cortez, The Yellow & the Bullseye Stingrays.
Okay I will look into those rays, and all those above mentioned rays are able to kept fine with brown banded bamboo sharks, correct?
I personally wouldn't keep rays and sharks together, but that's just me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think one of the rays' biggest threats are sharks? I don't know, I'm just very careful about my rays and what I'll keep with them.
I keep the California Round rays and they seemed to be hardy as long as you get them healthy from who ever and they tame up really fast with food of course and dont get real big, like 10-11" across. Zoodiver has the Yellow Rays that maybe get alittle bigger and have more color and also are a hardy one from what I've heard on here and read. The Atlantic rays stay small also but I have'nt had them but I assume Zoodiver or someone else on here has.turbo253;4141641; said:
Are the Atlantic Rays easy to keep or are they less hardy than other types of rays? And what kind of Atlantic Rays are they? I googled them and I'm coming up with all sorts such as cownoses and stuff.
Wow I really like the bullseye stingrays, I think I'll go with one of those and two bamboo sharks. I also wanted to know if I were to keep reefs on one corner of the tank would that be okay? And what size tank would you recommend for two brown banded bamboos and a bullseye stingray? Or what size tank would I be looking at with two Marbled Cat Sharks and a Bullseye Stingray?
