If it's sealed in epoxy it'll be no problem. If uncoated, the coral will make the water too alkaline and hard for the ray.

not trying to be dumb but do they have a spray epoxy that i can used that can be under water and not harm the fish? and can i buy at hardware..thanks

Well I maybe wrong but if you was going to spray it then you would been to let it dry out for a long time

Even then it would look out of place as they are not salt water rays

Also it will prob be to sharp for the rays

I wouldn't do it

Agreed. Don't make them something they are not, and even if you wanted to the coral would be really sharp...

Stingrays like to hunt for prey hiding under/around decor, and I wouldn't use something that abrasive. Their discs are very soft and prone to irritation.

The epoxy needed is 2-part; epoxy resin and hardener. There's no carrier chemical. So, once it cures it's inert to fish and water chemistry.
