    The guy that sold the Ray said he would be just like a dog and come to you ever chance he could. Thanks for the info Roger!

    I agree 100%

    IMO a ray is much more interesting to look at than shrimp anyway. Video?

    i dont think a ray in that size tank is very appropriate. but its your tank so more power to ya.

    lol..... I agree.. Very few LFS will be honest with you or in that fact have a clue on what they are doing, especially with saltwater. All they want is $$$. The LFS, well I have to drive 30min to get there lol, is great. He will not sell any live stock, unless it has been in his tanks for 2 weeks and all he sells is saltwater.

    Hey, there are shipwrecks in reefs, does that mean I can put one in my tank too? lol!!

    They're flat sharks that really like protein and fats. I'm thinking that clam I see has about 20 hrs of life remaining.
