Hello everyone. I recently say a ray for sale online that was labeled as "teacup stingray", but, judging by the size of the tale, it appears to be an antennae ray. My question is as follows:
Would an antennae ray go in a tank that is a capacity of 90 gallons and has ample driftwood as hiding places for the other fish (rope fish, leopard ctenopoma, and African knife). Also is the ray in the following link healthy:

I am not going to make any stupid decisions which is why I posted here first. :)
 
i think it would out grow a 90....what are the dimensions?
 
90 gallons is nowhere near the requirements of any ray if you're planning to use it as a permanent housing tank, but if you're planning to upgrade bigger, it'll probably work out. Probably not antenna ray, just a retic, their tails are pretty long, but your link no longer works so I can't see the pic.
 
You probably shouldnt. I heard Antenna rays are one of the more delicate rays. Doesnt sound like you have much experience with rays. Good job doing your homework first. Most guys would buy it first and ask questions later.
 
From the sounds of it its just a baby reticulatus,and they'll do fine in a 90 for quite a while.Never heard of a Antenna ray being imported at 3".
