Wheres the pond my man?!! That ray looks in desperate need of a bigger home !

Its nearly done Jim, the tank shes in now is 2.5' wide, it looks narrow in the pic beause shes jammed in the corner where the overflow box is.

Awesome flower ray, mines still quite pale compared to yours!

What black sand do you use? I can only get hold of Tahitan Moon sand which is pretty sharp or BD trading black sand which only comes in 1kg bags!

Thanks Brent Hows the little one coming along?
I only feed small baby ones, about 3" long or so. The ink sac & beak has already been popped/removed when I buy them so I just give them a good rinse before I feed.
