I have a 4" round sting ray that has been in my tank for the passed two months now. I noticed 2 brown spots on his underside yesterday (that are also visible from the top). Today he has six. My water parameters are great. no ammonia or nitrites. PH of 8.2. He is eating mysis shrimp and Krill. The only kicker is the water temp. He lives in a 180 gallon reef tank with other tropical fish so I am keeping the water at 76 degrees. i know i shouldnt go over 72 but I would suffer other loss as well.. right? I dont really know, I have only been doing this for 3 months. Can anyone help me with the Brown spots? I do not want to lose him. Thanks so much
 
if you can see them from the top try to get a few quick shots .. and if you can get them from the bottom that would be even better ..

around here pics are worth a trillion words

ps. my water temp for my rays is 80* they like it warm

i have no idea what you meant to say, but i meant, he has a saltwater ray, its in a reef tank
 
How do I go about putting pictures in here? The picture icon asks me for a URL site. They arent on the web. any hints? Thanks
