Second time WHY ME!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wow. The only thing one could suggest to fix this from happening again is... a rabbit's foot. or a 4 leaf clover. That's some rotten luck. I hope your ray(s) are all okay!
 
That is crazy, i can't believe this happened to you again.. Glad he seems ok..
After your old thread i was always watching my rays and as soon i saw a stinger missing i went on the search for it, just so i didn't have to go through this..

I looked the stinger over closely and it was all there

Wen stingrays shed their stingers how long does it usually take? I had a motoro for a while about a month and still hasn't shed. And if they shed it will there be a stinger already in the tail or do you have to wait for it to grow back?

They lose them about every 6 months and you will see two stingers on the tail as the new one grows in and they shed the old one. I just had a male motoro that picked one up in the sand and it was stuck in his tail. I pulled him out and used some pliers to pull it out. It was really hard to pull out as the stingers are serrated. They go in easy and pull out hard.
