Need help when the rays move up......

[Bogwoodbruce]

In a few weeks we will have setup a new 6x28x28 tank this will be the stocking:
2x 5" Motoros
8x 4" Red baysnooks
1x 5" Fei feng
1x 6" IT dat, will this be ok?
Obviously it will be cycled and a mature external canister (an FX5) Will the rays be able to fine their food? And should i have a tiled bottom, bare or gravel? And how should i decorate it? Thanks!

decorating is up to you bruce, why would you want to tile the bottom of a tank? it will just end up looking ugly, go for sand or a fine gravel. What do

you mean will the ray's be able to find their food?

don't do tile....sand or bare bottom...some gravel is ok... leave the fei feng out and when you feed make sure they get enough to plump up their backs

I prefer bare bottom.... I don't understand your question though.... the snooks might make you have to feed more... the decorating shoul be kept to a minimum... the more space for the rays the better....
