    Absolutely phenomenal informational video. I have saved this one to watch again and again for when I prepare to get stingrays in the future. Thank you to you both for sharing all the information!

    I met Joey Today! I was such a fan boy around him that I wasn't being myself lol. He seemed so down to earth and personable. Thanks for all that you do for the community Joey! Hint hint, he also mentioned what plans he has for that secret building. I won't spoil it though :D

    Why you sneaking extra footage of your buddies filtration system? ... Its almost like your going to set up your own ray breeding operation in your outbuilding!!!!

    • @TrentJ202007
      @TrentJ202007 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Right, each tank needing to cycle atleast 4X per hour. But I think selling 4-6 inch rays for 600-1000 each makes up for it lol

    at 9:30 was the camera intentionally left at that angle with stingray? you were talking about an albino stingray but all i saw was a stingray against the glass. the format for this video was kind of weird so i wasn't sure if it was youtube glitching or just how the video was recorded with a lot of voice over.

    • @featherfanatics9793

  • @cjday573
    @cjday573 7 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    I'm actually kinda surprised he didn't mention a good temp for breeding, maybe he just forgot because he keeps his facility at a constant temperature. In my experience as well as many other ray keepers I know, even some breeders in Europe, the warmer the water is, the more likely they are to breed. I've found that they won't really do much breeding below 77F°

    • @djdeertz5450
      @djdeertz5450 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @cjday573
      @cjday573 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Allison a 16" diameter ray isn't really "Miniature" that's still over 2ft long from tip to tail.

    • @ThisOneCassie

    • @KC-pt3oh
      @KC-pt3oh 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Cassiopia B the diameter of the ray and the length from tip to tail are different things. He said the DIAMETER was 16 inches and the LENGTH FROM TIP TO TAIL was over two feet. They were two separate measurements.

    what an amazing set up thanks so much for all the great info! Iv been really thinking about getting a Fresh water ray but I know what it takes to keep such a wonderful creature.... Id never forgive myself if I killed it though and I assume that is a good possibility, for a first time ray keeper... but Joey's channel is my fish keeping go to and I just do what he say and so far no fish have ever died in my main tank... sooo I'm definitely thinking about it...thanks again guys!
