**Important note: There are now available additives that can be used instead of live fish to cycle a tank. It will still take time, but this is a better and more humane method that we would definitely recommend.

Could you expand on why it is more humane please?
@ClintsReptiles
@ClintsReptiles 3 года назад
Because you aren't exposing live fish (perhaps even fish that you don't really want to keep) to an uncycled environment. Also, you are not exposing your future inhabitants to diseases that the fish you used to cycle the tank might have been carrying.

The added bonus being this channel's not gonna run out of material anytime soon if he does decide to venture farther into the watery depths.

Hey Clint, stingrays don't drop their tails, but they do shed their stingers. Kinda like a cat's claw or a shark's tooth, they will fall off after so long and be replaced by the next in line. That shed stinger can potentially injure you or another fish, so you need to keep an eye out for those.

Catfish are the toughest fish on the planet. Not that this is a good thing but growing up on the river i fished a fair amount of cats. I changed my method of cleaning after I opened up the cooler a good 24 hours after I harvested to clean it out and just the head and organs ( they were still attached to the head due to cleaning method) was still breathing in the bloody water. I had always figured that with the body removed death was a sure and quick thing. It wasn't. I shifted to destroying the brain before cleaning not removing the head and organs first.

Notes from a stingray keeper: 1) The tank is the biggest challenge. Standard aquariums tend to emphasize height moreso than width, and stingrays care about the latter far more than the former. I have never seen a standard off-the-shelf aquarium that I would be comfortable housing an adult ray in. Be aware that you're looking at something custom. You can DIY it for relatively cheap, but if you want something built by a pro, you're looking at big money. I would consider 72"/180cm× 36"/90cm the bare minimum floor footprint for a single adult ray, and I wouldn't want it any shallower than 24"/60cm. For those curious, that's a minimum volume of 270 US gallons/1020L, and the same footprint as a reasonably-sized dinner table. That same tank is going to weigh about 2500lbs/1135kg. The flooring under it may well need some structural reinforcement, and once it's full of water, it's going to be essentially impossible to move. 2) Once you actually have a tank, you're about a year and a half away from getting a ray. You need to cycle that aquarium for the first year, either using a fishless ammonia-dosing method or with really hardy fish(large, messy, South American cichlids are the best for this). After that year, get yourself some more delicate species to switch the big messy guys out with. I like earth-eater cichlid species for this: they'll generally accept a ray as a tankmate, they're attractive, and they're more sensitive to uncycled tanks, so they'll let you know if your tank isn't set up right. After you've gone 4 months without losing ANY of your second round of fish, you could start looking for a ray. 3) Decorating a ray tank can be boring. Jagged rocks can do some damage to soft ray undersides, and they'll uproot anything nestled in the bottom. I've started growing tropical plants above the back side of my ray ponds, which make them more appealing to look at. Sand looks really nice and is not awful to clean, but very deep sand beds can, over time, build up pockets of anaerobic bacteria in the depths that can be extremely toxic. Sand is also EXCELLENT at plugging up filters and suction hoses. Ceramic tile is easier to keep clean and can look really nice. 4) Rays are not aggressive, but anything that fits in their mouth counts as a snack. I wouldn't house any fish with a body length under 4"/10cm with a ray, lest it end up on the menu. When choosing tankmates, look for fish that dwell in the upper and middle strata of the water column, because rays are highly active and will constantly be disrupting other bottom-dwellers. I could(and have) write an entire article on keeping freshwater rays, but this covers some basics.

As a former ray owner AND pet store employee I HIGHLY approve this message!! Thank you to both you and Clint for trying to keep ppl informed on making the best choices for their pets BEFORE THEY GET THEM!! This channel should have WAY more subs and be WAY more noticed in the algorithim!! The number of times I tried to explain the proper way to care for reptiles and esp FISH ( esp set up) only to fall on deaf ears and then have a dead animal returned and be boldly lied to "you never told me that" is maddening. Im so glad we didnt sell rays or saltwater....just fresh. I felt bad for the saltwater stores cuz it was bad enough having kids and parents walking in everyday asking for a "nemo tank" and when they couldnt get it they would want a "goldfish in a bowl" which i still wasnt going to sell them!
@exnecross3141
@exnecross3141 8 месяцев назад
As someone who also cares for stingrays, aros, and other "monster fish", this is crazy. It does not take over a year to cycle an appropriately sized tank. You can easily cycle a 400g+ without any seeded bio media, completely from scratch in a month or two. I have no idea why you think it takes a year and a half, but that's honestly ridiculous and none of the main methods of cycling a new rank require anywhere close to that amount of time. Even fish-in methods, which are generally slower, only take a few months. And this is assuming you are being as careful and prudent as possible. Also, stingrays come in all shapes and sizes. There are teacup motoros which are proven to get no larger than 12 to 14 inches and can easily be contained in a tank that is not the size of a dining table. Even for the regular species this is an overstatement. Almost any 300g+ tank will have an appropriate footprint for at least one adult, unless you're buying a really weird tank. It's a shame that everyone will see your misinformation comment, and not the replies.

@Atlasworkinprogress
@Atlasworkinprogress 3 года назад
This was a great video, and I would love to see more fish (And other aquatic animals like Shrimp, Corals, etc!) from you! Some fish make amazing pets, even if most of the time you can only watch them. A few things that I thought I would bring up. I really liked your explanation on cycling, though it's a bit out of date, as the fish-keeping community has come up with better, more humane ways of cycling that don't involve subjecting any fish to toxic ammonia or nitrite. The current standard method is to get a "Bacteria in a Bottle" solution, some are better than others, Safestart I've found is best for Freshwater, but Fritz TurboStart is pretty good as well. Dose the tank with that solution, then dose the tank to 2-4ppm of ammonia, under 2 is fine, but never go over 4. Test daily, making sure to add ammonia when it starts going away as the bacteria colonizes your filter. If the Ammonia doesn't go away, unfortunately your bacteria probably died on the store shelves so you will need another bottle. Ammonia will go up, then will start falling as nitrites will go up. Ammonia falls off completely and nitrites peak, then nitrites will go down and nitrates will show up. When you have nitrates, your tank is established and safe for fish. Also a secondary comment. The reason why Freshwater Rays produce so much waste, is that they are still a saltwater fish, but with a special adaptation that allows them to live only in freshwater. Basically, they produce urea to maintain a higher salt level in their body than the surrounding water. Since they will always lose salt to diffusion, they produce a lot of urea, constantly. This means they put out a lot more waste than a fish their size. I normally like to think of them as being equivalent to a fish 3x their mass, and that is a conservative estimate. Anyways, some fish/shellfish I would love to see- Goldfish (cause care for goldfish is a lot harder than people think), Bettas (cause most people don't understand a proper habitat for them), Clownfish (most common saltwater fish, and very much a good intro to salt), and to list a few more off, Oscars, Common vs Bristlenose Plecos, Cherry Shrimp, Pistol Shrimp, Tangs, and benthic Saltwater Rays.

So. I've been around some sting ray tanks and I'm always amazed at their personality. Whether it be food motivation or what (even though they don't show disinterest when they figure out you don't have food), I don't know, but when I put a hand in these tanks some just either slide under the hand and almost excited when they pass by a person. I was in an aquarium and a very large group of loud kids came in. I was talking to the keeper from that area and asked if the all the noise of the kids (and the motion and hands in the water) freaks them out, she said they actually seem to like all the attention. On a side note, one animal that was surprisingly friendly in this tank was a horseshoe crab. It never ate the food from me, but it just came and settle under my hand as I pet it.

Several of the creature you talk about are young and look to be a reasonable size only to grow much larger than in the videos.

@@ClintsReptiles in the past I said I'd never have kids. At sunset today I confused my nephew while on call via a head set. While grabbing mealworms, red wrigglers, and a mouse I'd just warmed with water I said time for breakfast kids and then began swearing like id stubbed my toe. I'd just reminded his mom an hour earlier I had no plans for kids cause I can't parent and she said you'll see. Is my despair at being wrong warranted? Does it still count as parenting if it's a pig frog, Texas toad, and a ball python?

Stingrays are super fun to visit at aquariums, and are very intelligent, friendly creatures. My local aquarium has a bunch of smaller stingrays and then a big southern stingray named Priscilla, who constantly goes up to people for attention and pets. She has various moves she does. Unfortunately she is not allowed to be hand fed like the smaller ones cause her mouth is so big, but trust me, she gets plenty of food throughout the day!

Yeah my stingray was so cool!! Definitely recommend them!! They are not for any keeper. They are for experienced keepers. The reason mine passed away after 6 months was because I did a water change and and my sink broke and filled the tank with warm water. 😢 worst day ever. I had a pearl. They need a big tank! There bath is pretty serious too! If it gets stuck in you you have to push it threw your skin. Yeah that hurts. Also I have an electric eel!! They are sick!! You should do a video on them!! Price is going cost you from 300-1200 depending on the species. Some can go for over 12,000 easily.

Great to see you dipping your toes into the wet world! One note on keeping rays on substrate I hear from ray keepers is when they shed their barbs, if left in the enclosure it’s very possible for them to injure themselves on a discarded barb if it’s not removed, a bare bottom tank simply makes it easier to find the barb :) Really hope to see more fish highlights! Maybe some of the more accessible but very unique and specialist species such as snakeheads, gars or ctenopoma perhaps, all fish that share a lot of husbandry to reptiles honestly. You’ve opened a big book that is the world of fish 😂 keep it up! ❤️

Difficult things come with trial and error, but if you research, communicate with others who are taking care of said animal and your obsession is good enough, then it's not hard. But you are correct in everything you say.I guess it's just my love for aquatic life. 😞 They're really good pets and even more beautiful in the wild.

For those interested in freshwater stingrays, I recommend watching StingrayBiology, the guy whose channel it is, specializes in breeding and selling freshwater stingrays. Both Predatory Fins and King of DYI both feature freshwater stingrays in their videos from time to time as well. One thing Clint didn't mention in this video is that there actually different morphs of freshwater stingrays (don't know which species), much like some snakes. Which makes watching videos with them pretty cool since they come in different colors and patterns.

Melbourne Aquarium keeps a single Speartooth Shark, (Glyphis glyphis) (although it is not kept in freshwater - like Bull Sharks they can live in both fresh and salt water). No Glyphis sharks are available in the aquarium trade though, so the point still stands. Great video!
