Looking good, love the appetite 
OUCH.. nice ray, but poor Cichla.
Not to mention the buddy with Frt, Black Aro victims. That must have hurt.

Once they get a taste for killing there are not many fish that you can keep with them.
The only ones I've had any success with long term are arows, large dats & doradid cats, all the others don't normally see out the 1st night

wow...i really didnt know that rays were predators...i thought they were just scavengers and would inverts...
I realize that rays will get into mischief when bored. A bubble section and current and tank mates with spikes or armour seem to be the best way to go.
Flashy fast defenceless fish won't last long.
I've lost 3 angle fish, 5 FFs, 1 small patin cat, a silver barb and a small pleco. A mid size pleco, bigger FF, CLs and Dats have been semi snacked on and deemed unyummy.

If it was 14" it would have been but it looks about 8" tbh.
