wow this is to much... what are you.... 16? live with ur parents.... change your location!

Based on your username, right around your age bracket, and its fixed. A PM or a nudge in the right direction instead of public flaming may have been a bit more friendly for a newcomer, but to each their own.

Sam, thanks for the advice.

I tried that before, and u said u didnt care the they are illegal, and im 25
 
Disregarding the illegality, in case other members wish to know similar knowledge, i have seen rays and eels in the same tank, living peacefully.

Obviously, each ray and eel will have it's own temperament.

My LFS has had motoros (reg, marble and royal marble), retics and FW eels (forget what type) living peacefully in the same tank for many months now. One eel ended up passing away though, as did over half their fish stock in the store, to a massive, long lasting blackout that killed their power and more importantly, the store's filtration system. Otherwise, there have been no casualties as far as I'm aware of as a regular customer.

Thanks alot for the heads up, think Im going to go for it. Just need to find an eel small enough that hell be a bit timid based on the size of the rays, but not too small that they might try to munch on him.
 
Yes, eels can work, simply depends on the mouth size of the ray and the eel size.

Can't believe these threads are even still open. Where are the Mods when a thread really needs to
be closed.

There are OVER 4,000,000 posts on MFK, GET REAL a handful of MODS cant watch every post or thread. Stop your complaining and simply report the thread....
