Well i was looking at the smaller species such as hystrix is it?
But when ive got the 800g then i suppose the only thing limiting choice would be money,i looked on the classifieds in the uk today(not on mfk) and there was a 7" leopoldi black ray for £700 which is the ones i really like,the black ones but thats out of my price range by alooooooooot!
But some motoros would be nice.

nice yeah i believe the smaller ones are hystrix and retics. one would do well in my 125, but bigger rays are really nice lol.
 
i tried putting the rays i had with my sens and the sens went after the rays...they would bite the ray and hang on as the ray would swim away...the rays weren't damaged by this, but one death roll and there goes a chunk...that was after 5min together...i took the bichirs out after seeing this...to risky imo...
 
Blimey how big were the sens and rays for that to happen?

i have a bicher with mine. bicher is prolly 5 or 6" rays range from 4.5" to 9" give or take an inch. havent had a problem yet but its always a possibility
 
You're not getting the point. Although we know of people have done it, does not mean this is gauranteed safe. A few people have got this to work, but many more have failed and had either the bichirs or the ray killed. Theres no need to prove to us that people have done it.
 
Yeah i know what you mean,alot of people keep aros and gars but my rtg killed a 17" gar within a week so like you say,just because it works for someone doesnt mean it will work for us,if you know what i mean.
