How would you stock a 300DD

[Bmgrocks]

Just picked up a 300g Deep Dimension (72” x 36” x 27”) and looking for stocking suggestions.

Will be refinishing the tank stand and building a larger sump (likely 75g) and would like stocking suggestions.

Ideally I’d like to keep the tank under stocked with just one male ray species. I’m aware that tank dimensions are the overall limiting factor, and would like to cater to a smaller species as appropriately as I can.

share what y’all think!

smallest Cheap fw stingray?

Are their any FW stingrays that only get 18-24 inchs? and what would price be? Thanks!

thanks. Comparable ray species size can be determined by the sticky “Species profile” on the forum - I’m more so seeking folks ideal stocklist and tank mate advice

Id agree but rays and polys are a no go

 

[Kelly_Aquatics]

oh I agree! thats why I first posted my comment but then I noticed it was in the stingray subforum and that's why I retracted it

B Bmgrocks In all seriousness what were you looking to do theme wise predator? or more community style?

I was thinking along the lines of the classic - Dats, aros, and rays.
Been a lifetime aquarist but new to the MFK scene.

so a little out the loop as far as species sizing and numbers.
