I have a 720 gallon tank with Severums, silver arrowana, 2 chocolate cichlids 1 male and 1 female black diamond stingray. The aquarium has been established for 2-1/2 years. I have had the rays together for 3-1/2 years. I would like to add another female to the aquarium. I have found a13 inch for sale. What are your thoughts about adding to the aquarium?

I would why not. I have 3 females and 2 males in my 600 with 5 orino p.bass and about a dozen silver dollars. On a pretty heavy drip but I’ve had no issues current setup been running for 1 yr. I am going to downsize to 1 male and 2 or 3 females soon though. And my first 2 rays were a lot bigger than the last 3. I bought a male and female hybrid to make sure I could keep a ray Alive. After a year and half i got 3 black diamonds 2 female and a male. that was a year ago. They meshed together fine even with my new ray’s being alot smaller.

Preacher Preacher what did you decide? Did you add the extra ray? Any pics of your 720gal & inhabitants?
