update...the red eye is gone, but the eye is clouded still...the sunkin eye is alittle better, but still sunk...the fungus is not as thick now...its poop is green and see through...
i did the squirt and dump method this time and they seemed to be calmer and more active....then when i did the 1/2 cup of tank water every 30 min method...from my resent exp. i will use this method from now on...

Havent gone wrong with Mile's method for a couple years. If your ray's poop is green and clear, it might be a good idea to treat with some prazi and metro once you get these new guys eating. Though metro and prazi don't kill ALL parasites, it's a pretty good start if you (like me) have no clue about ID-ing parasites.Gshock;3788882; said:
i have prazi pro in the tank now...i did the same method with my pbass and aros i got on the same order they also are fine...i am hoping that my male eatting will stimulate the females...i didn't bother with a qt tank for the females since i had to treat my male anyways...also i figured him being settled in might help the female get settled faster...
the red eye is better, still a little cloudy but getting better...the sunkin eye is out and looking like the other eye, but with a little red.....the fungus is still heavymore so at the tip of the stinger and it appears to be stopping there....all 3 new commers have not eatten yet...
the main reason i didn't do a qt tank is the tank i would have used needs a new top...i am getting it on wed....as for the ray with the issues...it appears that the fungus is going away some and the eyes are getting better...still not eatting...
