I actually had a stingray before I moved, but I had to sell him because of the move. Now since I am in a different state, I would like to get one here or offline so I do not have to drive forever to get another one.
My LOCAL FISH STORE has got a bunch of freshwater stingrays,well they had a bunch of them, but now they only have 1 left. They kept the stingrays with some black ghost knife fish. They use red sand for substrate and no decorations at all.
Plus they did not keep them in A LARGE TANK.
SO NO LARGE TANK NEEDED.
Uh, yeah they do need a large tank. Most fish stores don't keep fish in the proper size tank as they are only holding them temporarily. They do get large as I am sure born2lovefish is already aware.
