Hi my name is Dave and i have a question about stingrays and tanks...i have two retics stingrays in a 125 gal (72x18x20) and i have a 220 gal (48x30x36) just wondering if the 220 gal would be better layout for my rays?? thanks Dave
 
yes if its just sitting there doing nothing put them in it... more water is better so is the foot print...
 
The 220 could probably house a pair of retics for life. Not to preach at you, but stingrays need frequent water changes and good, stable conditions to flourish. I'd love to see your setup! Post some pics!
 
thanks all ill try to post some pic later to night... the 220 is empty for now
i do 25% water changes every 3 days my nitrates are 5ppm nitrite 0ppm ph 6.2
i have them for about 5 months got them at 4/5 inches there about 9/10 inches : )

you sure they are retics????
 
That is just pretty big for retics- most of the ones that are newly brought in are small and sickly. Definitely post pics! Ashley and I are huge retic fans!

We are looking for one more; where did you pick them up from, if you don't mind me asking?
