    Ryan, about how big are those rays....hard to tell from the video. How big is the tank?
    Those are pretty cool.
    When down racing in Rocky Point Mexico one year my friend had a ray sting him on the achilles as we waded out to the swim start. After cleaning it up he still raced but his foot was numb almost the entire race. They told everyone to drag their feet to scare the rays away...there was a butt load of them everywhere.

    They are still babies, they are only about 5-6" in diameter, but with the tails they are probably 10" or so. The tank is a 120 gallon.

    Yeah I hear that sting ray stings are some of the worst. Their barbs are serrated in the opposite direction, so if you pull them out they do worse damage.
