What ray can in a 210?

[doomiedee]

I posted a thread about what size tank a ray needs . I have a 55 , 125 ,and 210. I would like one for either my 125 or 210 . Im going to put either a pair of oscars with it or a pair of festaes. Whats rays can live in these tanks for their entire life?

What are the dimensions of the 210?

I think the minimum tank for a ray is one that is twice the width of the disk, and 4 times the length of the disk. bigger is always better, but that's what I think you can getty away with. So you know, retics and hystrix stay the smallest and can look and be awesome.

Assuming your 210 in a 6'x2' like mine some would say hystrix and retics are ok in there for life, personally I wouldn't put either for life in less than a 30", preferably 36" tank.

The footprint is 6x2

How is that a 210??? A 6x2x2 is us 180g or uk 150g, and that's assuming it's 24 deep with water.

Hystrix and retic , as pups would be ok for a year maybe a bit longer. Then you'd need to upgrade IMO. Al the other rays, will outgrow that tank quick.

Its a 6'x2'x30", that's how you get the 210G.

i would say a 72x30 is perfect for a hystrix nothing else can live in even a tank that size for more than 1.5 years depending on what size you get the rays at
