Common name: Stingrays

Myliobatiformes is an order of rays, cartilaginous fish that are relatives of sharks. Members of this order are characterized by their flattened bodies and long, whip-like tails, often equipped with venomous spines for defense. This group includes various families such as Myliobatidae (eagle rays), Dasyatidae (stingrays), and Mobulidae (manta rays). In the aquarium trade, smaller species like the blue spotted stingray are popular but require large tanks with sandy bottoms to mimic their natural habitat. They are fascinating to observe but their care demands expertise and a commitment to maintaining high water quality and appropriate feeding regimes.
