So what is the difference between trimming and cutting it? I'd it like cutting the nails on a dog?

Yes, but if they're in your aquarium it's best just to leave them be. They will shed the old stinger and grow a new one so it's something you'd have to do on a regular basis. Better to just leave it natural and enjoy watching the ray from outside your tank.

+1 when you clip that will just make a new one grow in right on top of the one you cliped... When you take away the rays only line of defense mother nature will replace it fast!!!

Yes I am referring to fresh, I also saw at the aquarium a couple of types of freshwater rays that were stingless? If this is correct are these types ok to keep in a home aquarium. Unless the aquarium cut them off. I do a lot of research just wanting to hear from experienced keepers. I also try my best to never buy on a whim since I don't enjoy killing any my babies. I currently have my discus and if I kept rays it would be much further down the line when I build my house. Thanks for the input.
