Ive done alot of research and heard that they were brackish and also heard they are freswater and need really clean water, so which is it?

Well if you were to say "Freshwater Stingrays", does the name not give it all away? To make it clear, all freshwater river stingrays, Potamotrygons, are freshwater. There are other "common" stingrays that are salt such as D.sabina. Is it not common sense all fish require clean water?

sry about these guys... i understand you are knew to this and I would reccomend teacup rays. they are fresh water and very easy to keep. just make sure to have sand in your tank for them to bury. Look up these if you are willing to make the effort. GL

truthfully i would recommend a motoro as a first ray they seem to be easier to get eating. spend a little more money now and have a better looking ray. what size tank is this suppose to go in to?

Freshwater.

I find teacups one of the more difficult to keep rays. Motoros are much hardier.

Some are brackish, they tend to be triangular shaped and long tailed.
