Be careful with using Metronidazole powder. Do not overdose. I've used it before on a fish that caught mild bloat. Killed my fish within 10 min after treating it. I would not risk it with your rays. This is just from personal experience. Check the stickies to see which meds are safe to use for rays.

Moving/treating a half dead ray is wrong in the first place...
Bring it back to health/safe state, then treat.
I understand your concern but it has been done before... she seems to be doing better the last day..moving a lot more

Surprised no one has commented on this. A ray in a 20 gallon tank!!?? Feeding 5oz of bloodworms and 6 ghost shrimp and then wondering why the ray is floating at the top of the tank?? Doesn't take rocket science to figure that one out! It's not parasites killing that ray - just sheer stupidity!
I'm also worried about the way bubbles are staying in tact at the surface. 20 gallons of water cannot support the biological load of a motoro, and using the prazi is only going to make things worse on the ability of bacteria to break down the waste.
Treat it in a larger volume of water, and you'll get better results.

Just what I was waiting for so I could jump on the bandwagon! LOL. Just another person not setup properly to care for stingrays. The main tank is too small and definitely the quarantine tank is too small.
+1. Should have treated in the main tank as it will not harm anything else in the tank and prazi comes concentrated so you can treat big aquariums. Moving the ray around just stresses it more and a cramped tank does it no good either,especially if it is a new setup(not cycled properly)....water quality,etc. Feed something like earthworms that can stay on the bottom so they don't sucked up in the filter like blood worms. I would try to spot feed it and that way you will know how much it's eating.
