Ray help needed

[Florencebigfish]

Should i add salt to the tank? And should i corral the one male off or will it stress him out. Ive gotten most of the fish out last week so what i have is what i posted. I assume it was the water deal from a month ago?

[Florencebigfish]

I dont know why it was moved from the other thread. It was following the thread it was on. Ray death recently.

do u still have ammonia?

 

[Florencebigfish]

Nope gone

 

[Nic]

possible the clown knife and pike stressed them out...

 

[Florencebigfish]

The clown knife came after all this. Now the pike is another question. But i was told they wont bother anything they wont fit in their mouth.

INcorrect my pike would punk my rays, hence he is now gone!
