Flower Rays

Anyone have long term success with these rays? Been doing a lot of research on this forum and it seems lots of people have tried them and have lost them for one reason or another. Some can't get them to eat, some have them for a few years and they mysteriously die and some have them die from getting stressed out from other rays (including other flower rays). Interested in getting a pair, but can't seem to find anyone with long term success. If anyone is successful, please post pics and some background info as to how long you've had them, what your feeding them, tank setup and water parameters (RO vs tap, hardness, ph, etc).

Thanks,

Yeah he's had one for a couple of years - just saw it a couple weeks ago - great looking ray. Says it's finicky. I've been going through the posts, lots of members have posted getting / having flowers, but very few updates are on the positive side. Seems like they only live for a couple of years and then die off. Many other ray keepers have rays they've kept for 5+ years (Some almost 20 years). I have rays that I've kept for almost 5 years now. I'm looking to see if anyone has had similar success with flowers to see if there is any truth to the "myths" that they are hard to keep or if they are just not as plentiful in the hobby as some other rays (motoros / Leos). I wonder if the death rates of flowers are as proportionate as those of other rays, but seem higher just because there are not as many around.
