    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

    • @TrentJ202007
      @TrentJ202007 Před 4 lety +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

    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!!!!

      Aren't his rays siblings?

  • @cjday573
    @cjday573 Před 7 lety +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°

      Dj Deertz oh it did? guess I'm blind then, lol, but he didn't really explain why tho.

    • @djdeertz5450
      @djdeertz5450 Před 7 lety

      chris day yeah this video the explanations didn't match the videos sometimes. I think he had another video explaining the behind the scenes there and he goes over the filtration systems and tanks

  • @sinny1540
    @sinny1540 Před 7 lety +40

    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.

  • @TankerReview
    @TankerReview Před 7 lety +2

    I have to say this. They are so cute when they eat. The little pups. They do like a bubble action. at 17:02 one of them bubble the other ray and try and eat his tail!!! SO SO SO CUTE!!!!!!

    the pups are soooo cute!! I wonder if you could breed "teacup" rays, miniature!

    • @cjday573
      @cjday573 Před 7 lety +3

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

    • @ThisOneCassie
      @ThisOneCassie Před 7 lety +4

      There's only 12 inches in a foot 16 inches is only a foot and four inches witch is not over two feet

    • @KC-pt3oh
      @KC-pt3oh Před 7 lety +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!

  • @RonanCav
    @RonanCav Před 7 lety

    Daaamn he's not stingy with that food haha! I don't know if it's because I'm used to feeding small fish, or if he's just making sure those rays get big and fat lol... Anyways, the guy's got some healthy looking rays, and seems to know what he's doing! Keep it up man, all I know is if I was one of those rays, I wouldn't be complaining haha

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't heard any discussion on proper housing size? I know they're not to big as pups, but it looks like they can get quite large as adults. I heard the owner say he has a 600 gallon tank for one female and a tank mate. That's a huge tank. Haha.
