Rays

[n-e-w-land]

Hi, Im just about to set up my 190 gallon tank. I would like to have 1 or 2 small freshwater rays and was considering Potamotrygon Reticulata and Potamotrygon Scobina. The tank is 78"x20"x30". Im aware that the width isn't brilliantly suitable however it would have quite alot of floor space overall, considering the length. Which Ray would be most suitable if at all.
Thanks

retic or hystrix

Im not to sure I was refering to the retic, I think, however if the hystrix is smaller then perhaps they're a better option? What sort of price range would I be looking at for these species of ray?

Thanks

reticulata

for small rays less than £100 each

assuming that the width is 20' then 6 inches of length doens't really make up for the extra 10inches of width that an adult ray needs to comfotably turn around,

IMO the tank isn't suitable
