A 135 is not big enough in my opinion to keep a ray. Since you haven't purchased one yet I recommend looking for something different.

what els is nearly as cool and fun as a stringray? i was looking into small sharks too but they seem alot more expensive and harder to keep, can any1 give me some good sugestions of things to look into??

*(still looking for tips on the ray tho please let me know if have some)*

The Cortez rays usually come in pretty small, atleast they do at my store i think that you'd be able to keep one for a year or longer before needing to upgrade, I'd only purchase one if in fact you do have plans to upgrade in the future.

I wouldn't get one unless you plan on getting an 8' tank. I have one and they are very active and need lots of room to swim. Create a peninsula style aquascape.
