If any one want to get rid of a 100+ gal. tank for free or >$100. I'll look into buying.
Reticulated tank size & Wanted 100+ gallon tank
- Thread starter stingray man
- Start date
They grow pretty fast if fed well..
Be careful of Ammonia spikes in a small tank, make sure you have plenty of filtration.
An MFK member has a female reticulata at 30" total length w/ tail, so plan on a 200g+ tank if possible.. Keep an eye on Craigslist.

i have a retic at about 17" long with tail, and have had her for over a year. She was bought smaller then the one you describe. Mine is in a 120Wide. I am trying to sell her, to a person who can take care of her better now.
SO like the others have said, save up a good amount of money and get a 200+G tank, or sell the ray.
