    The rays are beautiful but I must say that the albino clownknives are lovely as well. Thanks for sharing!

      And yes, the black diamond ray is illegal, as it is a freshwater ray. Your video is titled diamond ray, and that is what I was referring to. The diamond ray is most certainly legal because it is a saltwater ray. It's good practice to list the entire common name or scientific name, especially when the abbreviated version can refer to several species (i.e. brichardi which can be of the genus Tropheus, Neolamprologus, Synodontis, etc.).

        He made a thread to rub it in our faces that we can not keep certain species of fish. Yet his information is incorrect. Common sense would dictate that you first verify your information.

                  Haha.... You are too up tight, you need to loosen your balls up a bit. It is pointless to continue arguing about my thrend. For the record, the title is labeled "Sharing my Stingrays..Texas forbidden fruit" and I also noted that i am unsure about the clownknife. I also posted a video of the stingray "the Black diamond", does it even look like the saltwater species? (talking about common sense)

                  So so technical.... Look at the video and use common sense. Almost everyone know that this ray is freshwater and not the saltwater specimen. I never knew there were any saltwater arowana or clownloach. So...Dont go bookworm on me.



                  **I found an article with detail picture of what is legal and what is not in the state of texas. Clownknife is not, so the hear say is wrong. :) Here is a link for everyone reference. I think the moderator should copy this link and make a sticky for everyone can see. http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publicat...6_refguide.pdf
