Stingrays in Chicago

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Live in illinois also. Was considering getting some rays. I'm in the planning stages of indoor pond now. Any pond pics or advise would be great. Is it easier to start with captive bread, or wild? Mature or pups?

thanks,

Todd
 
I noticed a few people mentioned having some new stingray pups but since I am new I can't private message anyone. Want to know if Brad from Crystal Lake has pups available and how much?

Brad From Chicago
 
yes there are lots of places to find rays the main one i knew of was scotts. brad you contacted me on AP right? i will pm i have a question about some prices
 
hey i guess i should introduce myself. i am a fishkeeper from chicago and i am in the process of finishing up my 380gal. acrylic tank. i have kept fish for years, all kinds, but this will be my first ray tank. i am very excited. so far everything is going well but i have a million questions. i have talked to scott at scotts who happens to be the man for stingrays in chicago. he directed me alot, but i am also looking forward to learning from all you guys as well. i figure the more heads the better. anyway, thanks in advance for all the help.
