The California Stingray is a graceful and seldom-seen addition to home aquariums. These stingrays feature a predominantly tan body adorned with lighter patterns.

The California Stingray can grow up to 17 inches and requires a minimum tank size of 180 gallons. Known for their peaceful nature, they generally coexist well with other fish. It's crucial to provide a tank with a thick, soft sand substrate, as rough surfaces can damage their skin, leading to infections.

The California Stingray is a delicate species, challenging to maintain, and best suited for expert aquarists or those with extensive experience. As carnivores, their diet should be rich in meaty foods. Younger stingrays thrive on a diet of crabs, while older ones need a more specialized diet.
