my male retic was found curled up yesterday morning, apparently havng died over night. fed around 10pm monday their usual blood and black worm dinner, and he ate and pounced on the feeding tube as normal. went to bed and he was swimming around looking for food. By the time i got home around 8:30am yesterday, found him in an advanced state of disc curl, and already gone.
my other ray is perfectly fine. still eating his worms and the ghost shrimp, so are all the other members of the tank. wasent stressed, as my water is absolutely perfect, and none of my fish bother the rays what so ever.
best conclusion, sudden stingray death. least i know he had a much better home here for a few months than good chances are he would have anywhere else. atleast thats what ill tell myself.....
absolutely sucks. my girl thinks im crazy. its the first fish ive ever owned that actually brought tears to my eyes to bury. never quite been so attatched to one of my fish before
