My motoro stingray has never shed his spine, he even has had 2 poking out for sometime. It finally seemed like it was that time, but his after 3 days his spines haven't moved and the rest of his tail has been slowly peeling away. What is going on? There is a baby stingray in the tank as well, if the older motoro is sick I don't want him to effect the younger?? Please help.

Have you tested the water parameters - Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate? If so, what are the levels.

What size tank is that, and water change schedule?
 
i would say it could possibly be the younger ray munching on it! ive had a few pups that have taken chunks out of other rays
do you have a plec in there?? they can do near the same damage!
