Hey all
In the process of buying items to set up a tank for a stingray

Can someone plz list the most conman and available stingrays in australia to buy along with there rough sizes fully grown?

How deep a sand bed do they need? will be using white soft sand
what tank width could you get away with?

Thanks

Most common is motoro down here or Motoro x Leo rough adult size is 50-60cm plus across the disc my 3 year old male is just over 50cm. Sand isn’t a must but id only go a shallow sand bed with a heavier sand your ray will blow a super fine sand around everywhere. As for width no less then 3ft there big messy fish and not cheap down here you wouldn’t want any less then 1200-1500litres of water volume to keep an adult relatively well.
