Banded Stingaree

[toolbox31]

I always thought they were neat looking rays. I've seen them in some large public aquarium displays like the Ripley's Aquarium in South Carolina. They have a shark/ray tank with quite a few of them.

Well if there in So. Carolina then they must be availible from some collector, but who is the question.

Which one are you looking for with the 'collector' comment....Cownose or Atlantics?
I have sources for both.

Actually the Banded but no one even gets back to me but I would be interested in the Atlantic since they are smaller rays.

I was under the impression that Stingrees are just a different form of Stingray form Australia. Since they are often from the same genus as stingrays from the Indo-pacific region.

That very well may be, but I dont know, they are close in size and shape to the California Rounds but that marking on their back is neat
