What do you mean why brazil? it came from brazil if thats what you mean:confused:
Thank you for the info on the turtles. if the ray wont kill the turtle i might try it. right now its suffering from too small a tank with a pike cichlid picking on it :WHOA:
I'm just guessing that it could be a Tiger ray but since it came from Brazil, it shouldn't be a Tiger...

At this point of time while your ray is still unstable, the turtle might nip your ray's disk and causing further stress.

Thanks a lot for the info helped a lot. i will let him sttle for a couple more days, fatten him up two.

I just fed him a bunch more worms and he ate them all with the exception of the last one no amount of coaxing changed his mind.

Good to hear that it's start taking some food. :)
 
its a humerosa ray, i have one myself. keep himon the earthworms as long as he's (or she's) eating them. good luck.

The dealer said it was rare so i had to pay 17 dollars for it
anyway its not very active but i am sure is pretty stressed right now.
can anyone id? it will be going in my 8' pond when it grows but for now its in the four footer.
tomorrow i leave to go fishing so when i get back (Monday) i will keep you updated. atm he is 10 inches to the tip of its tail.
it has slightly blue markings on the body. Man I am so thrilled!!!
This is my first ray so need info!!!
also i am afraid to put it in the pond because of the turtles, will they bother him or get stung?

$17...OMFG....:WHOA:
 
He is still alive and doing well in all he ate about 10 earthworms in the last few days i am trying my hardest to find more but in the brazilian heat it isnt very fun.
thank you for your support everybody!
 
If you can't find the worms try some finely cut up fish pieces or something.
