In a strange turn of events this morning I woke up to find a single stillborn pup in the tank. One week after the litter. Strange

so she might have that one in her belly with the earlier litter but just did not get born... How are the other pups doing?

Amazing actually. The lights are now on (I kept them in the dark to adjust). Eating well and swimming around like crazy.

Are you sure those are henlei? they look like teacups

You could be right Chris! I will post in the Stingray Forum immediately so and expert can tell me what I have!

Arent they supposed to be black?

Hen start out Brown with the eclipse rings. Six-12 months will turn.

Here is pics. 2 have lost their egg sacks already which I hope is still good. One ate already yesterday. It ate two pellets!

4 months and 3 weeks

She gave birth to 5 very large (4 inches) pups last night. I lucklily heard the commotion and go up to watch everything. Very cool. Very healthy

I think she still has a few more in there so will let you know. Uploader is not working on this computer so pics will have to wait until monday.

Most pet smarts will carry them

Bristle nose are the best. All other plecos I have tried will eventually suck the rays slime. I have tried many

She looks awesome Tim, you've put your time in with her and you're about due for success with this litter!

Thanks Kyle,

Your right about the time...and the money!

Wow, congratulations!

Are the parents wild caught or captive bred?

Thanks for the compliments. My rays are my passion.

Theo both are wild caught but have been in captivity for a long time

So how long before it pops ?

Last time she was 5 months so well see

Big girl

Amazing setup. Where did you get the Flag tail? I have been looking for one, :thumbs:

Very cool fish. Last owner tamed her well. I will take pics of me holding her.

:thumbs:

The lady who owned her called her Sammy and is quite sick and therefore Sammy it is.

I picked her up from a fellow hobbiest. :thumbs:

The closest thing to this would be a reef tank or maybe a planted tank and they still need water change especially if you keep fish in there.

My lifelong goal is to make this hobby as large and as easy as possible. My two cents? Add a drip system. I run probably 1500 gallons in my house and spend maybe 40 minutes a week changing water and it is on the one tank that has no drip. The others all I do is change filter socks.

The Piranha in Newfoundland is obviously just tough and can with stand massive amounts of Ammonia spikes....sorry kids but changing water is a must.

Well thanks everyone for clearing up the mystery...I am surprised that Gold' mislabelled it...they are usually so good about that. Anyway...I'll do my research on the fish and see if indeed he is compatable with my other tank...if not...he may go on the market.

Been a while since I have been into Neos but this is an old classification. Neos are re-classed so much I doubt it was intentional of Golds. Books arent updated as much as the internet!

Pellets are great for rays. Some however may cause upset stomach so watch for this.

Good looking ray's Tim--I see you are still using the tub from Marcus I'm still mad I didn't buy it first
