Thank you for all the nice comments. I like the sand with the motoros but i may have to change when i put the p14s in. It's a 275cm 115cm 55cm glass tank.

Beatifull tank but why oh why are so many people using sand that sticks to the skin of the rays. One of the nice thing about rays is their pattern and we cover it up by using the wrong sand. But I 've bin their. And exparimented a lot with sand and finally found a good sand. It's grains are al between 0,75 and 1 mm wonderfull stuff.
Best regards

Exactly what sand do you suggest we use then Frank ???
I use B.D aquarium sand and this also sticks to them. But like it has been said, they shake like a dog throwing water off and the sand is gone!
 
i use black estes sand it works good
 
nice rays Alex i am experimenting with substrates right now and found a gravel by Carib sea called peace river it is suppose to be between 1 to 2 mm 14'' female ray will not bury into it so far she was purchased in a tank with Estes sand and all rays seemed to bury in it. the point is you have a great setup with some awesome rays good luck with the female
 
im using rounded sand with diameter of .8 - 2 mm and it worked very well with my ray. although some was stuck on her disk every now and then, it was way less (almost nothing) than i see on other pics.
