I have heard some one told me that pearl ray tend to have this Sudden Death Sindrom... How true is this
 
Any more info then that to share? Ive never heard of such information.

they said that in the morning the rays are okay eating then suddenly died in afternoon or evening without any indication that they were problem...

my friend check the water para all in good condition the other rays were doing fine
 
No truth in this what so ever.....utter rubbish!!!

There are other examples,... rather laughable!!

Tigrinus cats (Brachyplatystoma tigrinum) attain 3 years of age then mysteriously drop DEAD!!..lol
South American Lungfish(Lepidosiren paradoxa) get to 8 years of age then guess what?...you got it!! they also drop dead!..These things are living fossils!
And one of the most common myths of all..."Stingrays are difficult to keep"

The above are in most cases "not all" caused by poor husbandry and a lack of knowledge, sure a fish can suddenly die, it happens in humans too, life can be fragile.

Well I have been keeping Pearls for more years than I care to remember, during that time I have never lost a Pearl adult or pup with sudden death syndrome, I did however lose one at work only yesterday along with a couple of Leo's, the heater stuck on and boiled them!! Thinking about it this Pearl is the "only" pup I have ever lost under any circumstances.

Go ahead and get a pair and good luck!

Wow Richard! That really sucks. Damn unlucky mate,feel for you.
 
Myth Busted !!!!! I agree that something probably happened to those rays that just dropped dead all the sudden. Could have been about anything with those situation its most likely all unknown though.

If anyone is worried ill take your pearls from you.
