Severe stingray open wound & healing process (graphic pictures)
- Thread starter Castexi
- Start date
Here are some pictures from this evening. You can see the divet between her eyes is almost completely gone which is good news for people that tend to throw the rhetoric that one with a gap or divet between their eyes is destined to die soon - and her hips are no longer showing. I think I'm out of the risk/danger zone at this point, she is acting just like any of my other rays(not that she wasn't before), is still eating tons and is trying to escape her laundry basket jail constantly. Will probably continue updates a few days apart until the "seam" of her wound is gone and then maybe an update down the road.
Healing well! And laundry basket? That's a cool way of keeping a ray in!
Definitely appreciate the kind words.
They're great for any tanks over 360g or so with a eurobrace; you can just shove a thin wooden dowel through on two ends and "hang" it from the braces.
Great job in helping that ray heal. In another person's hands the outcome may have been different.
Unuque markings now. Where the wound was looks like a flower now

2 month later update!
She's putting weight back on again, the pattern is still very distinguished and psychedelic, she seems happy and healthy despite being a little thin still. Thanks for comin' on this trip with me, guys! Hope you all had a happy Canada day/4th of July weekend!

Personally, I wouldn't choose stingrays. My wife would just freak.
But nonetheless, that is some very impressive livestock.
