I hope you enjoy That Ray tig. Please keep me updated on his progress. He was a super nice non aggressive Ray when he was in my tank. He never messed with the smaller rays I had in the tank with him.
 
Don't be too overly concerns over them... Here is my two-cents: water quality and stable temperature are the keys. Rays aren't coping too well with sudden change of temperature. Drop of several degree over the course of the day could be fatal. Chlorine in the water also very critical... Make sure you do ample water cycle and add new water as much as you could... (I did about 100% daily) other than that... Enjoy

I could not afford the new rays. So I traded the 2 I had to help off set the price of the new oness.

Fish tanks direct did a really nice job on my tank. It took 10 weeks to build the tank and stand it was done in 8 weeks but I called and had them install the overflows and added a wet dry sump. Only thing I wasn't super impressed with was they shipped it on a semi and I was responsible for getting it off the truck. 1000 pounds on a 8 foot long pallet. We used a bobcat with forks and about 10 guys. Made it look easy but was stressful.
