The last night my stingray suffered attack of my peacock bass or maybe a kind of disease, could you recommend me anything, either drug or treatment with salt. Thank you.

Get him into isolation away from the bass right away, if you haven’t done that.

make sure your water is very clean, aerated, and I would say roughly around 82 F. Add some salt, see if the ray eats.

do you have a pleco in with this ray, can you post a full tank shot? What are the current parameters of the tank? Ammonia, nitrite,nitrate?

Clean water and salt should fix it up.
 
I agree on matts suggestion about an pleco. On the edge of the disc might be an heaterburn.
