I have a P.Orbignyi? I think that's how you spell it.
Well, she's only about 7 inches and seems really sensitive.

I want to put her in my 560 with 3 18 to 20 inch Leo's, a very large Knife fish, and 12 inch tin foil.

You guys think she'll be munched on or killed?
I just wanted to know if anyone ever tried it or had similar circumstance.

Quote-Seems really sensitive,

sounds like a bad idea in your own words
 
That's why I'm asking for advise.
I've never seen my rays attack anything so I thought it might be OK.

A buddy had one and it was very mellow like a motoro. I dont think it would mix well with blackies. It could be ok but you would have to watch close and separate if needed

Right now she's in a 40 breeder and doing OK. Eats well but only active at night. During the day she stays covered under the sand.
I was thinking if there was more activity in the tank, she'd get more personality.

A 40 breeder is very small.

Do you have any other tanks setup that could be used for a growout out?

I have a 7 inch ray in with adults at the moment. However this ray is an extremely aggressive feeder and has a very cocky attitude for his size.

Well, its done. Last night I threw the little girl in the big tank.
Everybody getting along great.
She's even eating better.
Now let's see if she stays more active.

I grew out my motoro tell she was 10 inches in a thirty gallon wait tell she's another 10 inches before u put her in with the rest of the pack. Everyone has had there own experiences on what's right or wrong u just grab the best of everyone's and make it your own but for now I believe she is still too small

I agree, he's a little too small to go with such large rays
Good luck though
