I would think you should get a custom made tank. Sting rays are more of a expert fish and I wait until you have more experience before movin onto them

And make sure they are not illegal..they are in Florida...
 
Are you talking about freshwater teacup string rays? Those I've heard are 200 gallon minimum...
 
Teacup rays are just young stingrays so treat them like adults in terms of tank size
 
That's another thing I wanted to ask what exactly is cycling?
 
actually potamotrygon reticulata reach 12-14 inches and CAN be kept in 200 gallons though a standard 200 wouldn't be ideal a 4 foot by 4 foot by 2 foot would work thats roughly 230 gallons
