jamie that must be your new ray .. i havent seen that before but ill try my best to find out info for you ... maybe try adding salt to the tank for now
thats what i do when mine get white spots. two days later they go away
 
What are your water parameters?
 
Kinda looks like bite marks from far but the close shot doesnt look like bite marks.
 
Looks like it's scrapping on some thing.
 
Its nots scrapes or anything just little white things...I work from home and keep a close eye on the ray...nothing is biting it...it just got shipped here could it be a stress issue? Although she is eating like a pig and is active...ill do a water test in the am before I start work will also add salt temp is 82 deg.
 
thats one of the worse stingray tanks I´ve ever seen.
take out those balls, pure stingray.
would u like to rub with your belly over football-size stones?
Take sand, gravel or go bare-bottom but that what u have is such cruel.

No idea what that white stuff is, if it eats well it will be away soon.
 
dissolve the salt first.... and i would do 4lbs total of salt... that tank is your 150 correct? 2lbs today... 2 lbs on monday...
