Are bat rays (the stingrays) able to live in freshwater2007-11-24 23:10:01

When i looked up bat rays on wiki, I found that they are able to live in environments with wide ranges of salinities but would they be able to live in freshwater?

Answers:

More than likely no, the answer that was previously given says they can slowly acclimate to the salinity. No, they can swim to where they can be comfortable, unlike in a tank, where they are enclosed. But if you would try to keep it alive in freshwater, it probably wouldn't live very long


In nature when they get into an area with lower salinity their body can acclimate itself slowly, and naturally. I don't think they could survive in fresh water unless they adapted over a long period of time, they probably don't have a swim bladder that would allow them to just switch over.
i doubt that the stingyrays that live in frshwater are called ocilating stingrays
