I guess this has been asked a few times but wanted to check a couple things:
I have wanted a sting ray for a while, either polka dot, motoro or tea cup and am happy to take things slow....
i have a 5x2x2 in the garage in storage but the kitchen needs refitting before this is setup (or a bigger one again) but I have been allowed a tank under the stairs! I had considered expanding my discus collection but then I wondered if a couple of Rays could fit in there... The maximum size is a 4x2x2ft well actually the depth could be 2.5 or 3 (though this wouldn't be as good viewing). The system would have a ro based continuous water change (well 12 hours a day on a 100gpd to filter)
So I am not going to say is the 4ft enough for 6 months or a year as I think the kitchen will be closer 2 before its done... But would a couple rays be happy in a 4x2x2? Would the additional depth help the Rays at all considering that they will be on continual water change with ro water?
In essence is it a no go for now? would it be possible with only one ray and of the 3 fish above can they be ranked from best suited to least suited?
thankyou
