Oh man, do I ever love that ray!!!

she did not eat last night or this morning, her breathing was very shallow and light today, I hope the amonia in the shipping bag of 5-6ppm is not paying a toll on her. After missing flights she was bagged for about 24 hours.

Man these things are dropping like flies! So sad.

I must have lucked out with mine.

shipping must really be stressing them out, or Hystrix just are not very hardy, maybe that is why there is not much around.

Hystrix have historically been considered a hardy ray and have the lowest after catch death rate of any other ray.

I have a feeling since they are so cheap, exporters and importers are treating them like retics and not providing them with the care they would of a higher dollar ray. They are probably being way over packed per box.
