::hello,
::i want to get some freshwater stingrays, but i have some questions:
::i have a 120 gallon tank i have 5 or 6 oscar, a green terror, a jack demspoy, arrowanna, pacu, tiger shovelnose and i am suppose to have a redtail cat comoing in a week or so. these are all good size fish(the tiger is almost 18 inches). would a stingray make it in the tank? are they really hard to keep as i have heard? thanks in advance. happy thanksgiving

:Don't get a ray w/those tank mates!! He'll be dead in no time! I got rid of my cichlids before I got my ray. I only kept my bloody parrots cause they are very docile and I refuse to get rid of them!! You'd definately regret putting a ray w/your fish.
:BTW - do you know how big those RTC's get!!! 5 or 6 oscars ALONE max out your 120 gallon tank....
:Beth
Five or six oscars seriously overcrowd that tank, two oscars overcrowd it. Will, I highly suggest you learn more about the fish you currently have and provide the proper tank sizes for each of them before considering buying anymore.
