Default ray just suddenly floats up n curl e disc

early morning saw my 14inches female ray was afloat of the water, i tot it

was the death curl, cos the disc was curl up n tail was pointing down, then

after awhile, it began to swim down again. 2hours had pass by now, the ray

looks ok, still can eat.

now my question is, is this the death curl first systom?

inside still got other rays, but only tis female did that, will other ray also

become like this?

anyone?

Some fishes are weaker n react faster than others?

Why not have your tank perimeters like ph check?

i suppose tat is the reason...cos the other male kept on chasing her, quite alot of bite marks on her body, i tot it was nothing...but now e female kept on avoiding the male...but i got no spare tank to house her,,,as she is quite big to join my other rays in other tank..

when ever the female lays down..e male comes...LOL..but it had been chasing her for 1 months plus..LOL
