tankmates for teacup stingrays?

[lucashome4him]

Hi,

What are some cool looking tankmates suitable for the teacup stingray? Can it be kept in a 200-250 gallon tank with other fish?
Any other info could help...


thanks.....

usually teacups are reticulated stingrays which grow to about 14" (so says the sticky mines still a baby)

but seeing how teacup is a catch all maybe a pic would help?

teacup stingray is just a term to describe baby stingrays. At that young age I would personally recommend you don't keep them with anything except other young rays. they are very very fragile at that age.

Research is always good. The more you do before you get your ray the better.

well besides telling you to read the stickies and buy some books... let me clear some things up....

1 tea cup is general term.. if said teacup is a retic it gets up to 18" disk plus a long tail...

2. if your 250 isnt 30" wide you cant really keep any ray for life....

3. use the search bar for ray tank mates there is atleast a 1000 threads...
