Most freshwater rays will exceed a meter as adults....china rays are said to reach over 2 meters!!! They will eat anything they can catch, except china and ceja rays which eat only live fish....they will also sometimes pick on larger fish they can't eat . I have had rays live peacefully in tanks with other rays and fish for years, only to start picking on another fish or ray for no apparent reason.....

Just getting started in the stingray research phase. Planning on setting up indoor pond or large plastic pool. Any info. on husbandry, pond construction, livestock purchase site links would be helpful.

Thanks,
