Re: New journey; freshwater stingrays…
Just a routine update vid.
Scooter, Dotti and Murphy are doing well. I am astounded at the ammonia production of these belly sliders! Despite having a huge amount of mature media in the twin dumps there are times when the water literally has a faint cats pee smell. Waste production like nothing I have experienced in 40yrs in the hobby! Maintaining my weekly water changes and increases from 250 to 350gallons each time. Added raw shrimp to their diet twice weekly once I was convinced of their consistent readiness to take massivore pellets as their mainstay food.
I am planning to add some decor soon to “spice” the look of the tank up a bit. Will do some creek bed walks in the near future and gather my own wood pieces. Will place a few larger pieces of rock as well. Oh and maybe an arowana or a peacock bass or 2.
Anyhoo, here’s a quick vid to say g’day!

Re: New journey; freshwater stingrays…
Al as promised here’s a few short vids of the ray behavior when I came and sat in front of the tank this afternoon. Definitely recognized me as their food source and put on a little show for me
They have poor eyesight but definitely seem to recognize me as their food source! Hope you (& others enjoy) enjoy!
A little post feeding exploration

Re: New journey; freshwater stingrays…
Danny they are really cool . They definitely get excited at feeding time!
Aging myself here and showing my trekky side..Cant help it but everytime I see Rays I think of the original Star Trek with Kirk and Spock and the alien "pancakes" that took people over.Kirk lost family to them.
