One of my favorite aquarium fish is the kind of fresh water, especially those of the genus Potamotrygon. This fish is not to start a hobby, but if you have some experience, this is a fascinating animal. There are many types of rays in the wild, but you are just a few ways to find for sale at a local fish shop. You can get a wider choice of types of specialized breeders online, but are sold under their common names. For this reason, I am not the scientificThe names in this article.
Races are very sensitive to water parameters. Have relatively large kidneys and produce lots of ammonia, so make sure the appropriate filter. The type of aquarium you keep them in very important because they remain at the bottom of almost all the time, a tub with a big bottom of the best, but a tank top closer. Radii much larger than a tank for one adult of at least 4 meters to 2 meters should be, the height may be 2 meters. Youcome from tropical locations and should be a temperature above about 75 ° to 80 ° C. The pH value is kept in a range between 6,5-6,75 and maintain TDS (total dissolved solids) to 200th
When buying a new Stingray, stay away from the copies that have a "hedgehog" disc, called this the "death curl" as each Stingray is surely die early results. A healthy ray Disc will always have the edge on the ground, except when moving actively on the tank. SomeTo hypothesize that it is having kidney failure from over-exposure, the animal a high level of ammonia (as in transit). Other possible symptoms are:
- A cloudy or milky film covering the body
- Fast breathing or wheezing at rest
- Open wounds
- The bones of the pelvis, radiation Shows in good health should not show these bones.

Be careful if you tank good counterparts for these fish. Breeds are not aggressive towards Usually larger fish, but should not be confused with something you can eat, because I lost a couple of TETRAS, crabs and even a few Cory catfish. On the other hand I Plecos are on the beams, but they were mostly a nuisance in some cases, injured.
The power supply is probablythe most difficult to maintain the beam. The first time buy is sometimes hard to get them to start eating, and here is where I lost most of my radiation. I discovered that, like squids, earthworms (still struggling) and raw meat. Feed them at least twice a day.
