Stingrays

I have two stingrays which I've had since they were smaller than the palm of my hand. Have to say they are two of the coolest things I own! If you ever have a big enough tank I would recomend them. I hand feed them both and am able to actually hold them. One's is a boy (Gary) and the other a girl (GG) Hoping one day they breed. It was feeding night tonight and here are some pics of them. Btw, yes their tank needs a little cleaning.lol;D

 

cool, have you ever been stung?

 

LOL No. I think they know when I come around it means they get fed. So I think they tolerate me.

 

nice! i used to have a spotted ray, ray charles, but then a rock fell on him. he was great though! holding him in my hands was so cool

 

Awesome stingrays you should post some pictures of your sharks eel etc. Plzzz

 

Shark eel? That's sweet too! Are those two rays in your 125 or the 75? I've always wanted one. They are really neat. My LFS has had one for about a year now, for sale, but of course no one will buy it. Maybe me some day! My Ultimate reef would be a 600g in-wall-peninsula. Rays are reef compatible, if I am correct?

 

Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Round Stingray

This is the kind my LFS has.

 

ray charles liked to plow over corals sometimes but thats about as much damage as he ever did to any coral

 

lol. Plow over as in...rub against when it swam or as in mess up pretty bad/knock over? BTW, Patrick, I like the name you gave your ray.

 

thanks, and the reason he got his name is because he acted like he was blind and would run into everything, so of course i couldnt pass up ray charles, it was almost too perfect. that aside, he would knock over frags and stuff, nothing i couldnt pick upright and be done with... actually, it was maily because of my laziness and not epoxying things down, but all in all it was pretty low key
