Earthgirl Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 I was cleaning my tank and one of my female Motoros was burried. Normally I know where all of them are (cause I want to be stung) and I suctioned on her. OMG that was sooo scary! I think she is ok, anything I should watch out for? She has a circle on her back where the suction thingy hit her, but no red.... She is calm and breathing ok, just wanted to know if anyone has any suggestions for me (other than watch what I am doing...) :banned: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I injured my male a while ago by dropping a glass top and had to watch him waste away, sucked big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthgirl Posted June 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 She seems to be eating some pellets.... I am going to try with some shrimp tonight. Seems she is ok, there is just a slight mark on her back. If you aren't looking carefully, you can't see it. Too close for me. Now unfortunately she seems very skiddish which she was not before. I guess I need to be even more careful than before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windeindoiel Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Well my male motoro beat the female up pretty badly, little chunks of white flesh were like hanging off her, but she seems to be making a good recovery. Give it some time and she'll probably be ok, rays are pretty tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthgirl Posted June 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 She is eating shrimp, although when I opened the tank, she is SOOOO skidish! Hopefully she comes around to her inquistive manner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
