does anyone keep small eyed rays?

[vitaly]

I really want to try china or ceja ray. they just look way too cool to pass up. i dont have any space right now because i dont want to mix them with potamotrygon rays. does anyone actually keep them or antena rays on this board?

havent really seen to many small eye or antenae keepers on this forum but i have seen them on some other forums.

PM solarcoaster and mshuangchao about the antenas. If i remember correctly, solarcoaster actually bred his pair and ms has a mature pair as well. For cejas and china rays, probably best to talk with zoodiver or davidW. You're going to need one hell of a tank to keep those though...

Or Erica (AmazonGirl). She has done very well with them.

honestly, i dont have any specific questions. i was just wondering about them. it is just kind of odd that very few people keep them. (the same with asian freshwater rays)

They get ginormous and are extremely difficult to get eating and often die when exported b/c they will not eat. I wouldn't recommend the ceja.

Size of the tank / display would be the biggest hold up there. Not many people have the budget for 100,000 + gallon FW systems to house many of the bigger rays when they get to adult size.
