Had this since last Sunday, got it off Lee on here. It's settled really well , doesn't normally climb the sides like on here but caught it doing it so thought i'd take a vid(on phone so quality is poor)

Thinking of looking into getting some sort of mud for the bottom for it to bury into, just not sure what you can get thats safe for them.

Dimensions are 72"x30"x30" with a 60g sump. No problems with the Poly's at all which is good, i have seen the ray totally cover a few of the poly's but they don't seem to mind , sometimes its the other way round where there is a bunch of poly's sat ontop of the ray.

Where in England are you?

I do not think "Mud" would be the right thing to use, apart from Marine Miracle Mud I do not know of anything used in fishkeeping.

I think some form of Sand would be the way to go...there are lots of threads on her about it.

I'm in South Cumbria, yeh i havent seen anything used in fishkeeping yet, don't fancy sand as i have that on my others may try some sort of gravel.

Well i know you can get UPS's meant for PC's /servers/ racks etc which normally just have plug sockets on the back you plug into, not sure if they'll work but when i get some spare cash ill get one (only £60-100 for mid range) . You can get them at any decent Computer store.
