[kwstas_original]

OK, i was waitting more than 3 years to get one!
I was reading and reaserching almost everything i have to know and finally i found one!
An lfs brought a potamotrygon motoro and of course i couldn't resist!
He is still a baby..
Please tell me what you think.
Also i would like to ask...is there any emergency medications or something that a ray keeper should have in case of an accident???I didn't found many awnsers about that.
Thanks.

yeah, i've taken some pics when i put him in the tank so they are a little curius!and they are young too, they can't hurt him.
now they don't even turn to look at him!
i don't know to tell the dimensions in inches cause we count in meters here so the tank is 2,00x0,80x0,80cm, thats about 300 gallons.
don't worry, theres an indoor pond also!

Nice Motoro. As far as meds go, there is a sticky that explains the different meds and what each on can be used for. If the ray is healthy and eating, all you need is clean water. Wild caught rays can have parasites, but if its eating, I don't recommend stressing it further. You can try chopped night crawlers, chopped raw fresh shrimp, talipia, some will even take to pellets. Stick with what it likes and slowly mix in new foods. Enjoy.

Nice motoro, if you are meaning in case of accident as in stuck by the spine there is also a sticky with a link that explains everything you should do.
