I was just thinking. Some of you guys have spent so much money on rays, as much or more than you would on a dog or other family pet. We have our dog insured against illness and death. I know you can't exactly take your ray to the local vet if it gets sick but how about insuring a ray against death. Say in the event of a power cut?

My insurance would not even insure for tank flooding. They said they would just not cover anything like that. So I'm screwed. 
Try actually using the dog's insurance.
But I have heard of someone who claimed (apparently successfully if I recall) for rays lost in a storm or something.

I tried to get my tank covered....no body would insure it. Seems like their is a market for this. Anyone connected to insurance industry should seriously consider trying to make accounts that handle large fish tanks. Id pay 50 bucks a month to insure my tank.
Are you serious?
Try calling the toll free number for Lloyd's of London and ask their customer service rep...I'm sure they could use a good laugh!
My 2200 gallon is insured, I'm not much help as I can't remember how much it cost to add onto my existing insurance plan. The livestock inside was not included. It's cheaper to buy some backup eqipment than to insure the livestock.
Well with cars and lives actuaries have hard data to calculate their rates from. There's currently not a way to track tank damage, fish loss, etc so without knowing the statistical risk, an insurer is blind and any rate they give you would be pretty inflated to help them guard against their ignorance. That's why no one provides it.
