dogboy Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 sorry cant help with the fish choice, i have zero experience with rays i would add another heater, thats a big tank and 2 heaters may cope better than one alone. cant wait to see the photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksta Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 I guess you're going to want to keep the tank fairly light on decor (to allow footprint for the rays) and also probably want to stay away from any other bottom dwellers that will dominate the rays. 10,000 tetra's?
