Ray Pup

[cane76]

i knew something was going on but i werent sure of anything
i thought with motoros it was plain to see if a female is pregnant
like you can see the pups moving through her back

 

[MHunt]

Woah cane! Great news about your motoray arrival!!!!

 

[smithrc]

Wow - Rays are something I've always admired but cant justify the tank.

How old is "she" I only ask as she looks a lot bigger than I would expect from a newborn

 

[MadMan-JaMeS]

how big of a tank does a motoro need mate ?

i'd be interested to buy her maybe

she looks nice

when the pics were taken she was about 12-16hours old
she is a lot bigger than i expected a pup to be too
but her mother is huge and she is the only pup so this probably explains that

That tank is only big enough to grown her on james she need a much bigger tank.

a 5x2x2 would make a good grow out tank but in roughly 1 year it would need more

 

[MadMan-JaMeS]

Oh, shame that i would love a ray for my tank.

could i accomodate a small ray in my tank of any sort ?

Congratulations Cane!

 

[mark7616]

you could house a scobina or hystrix for a good few years but I very much doubt you will find any over here.

[Straydum]
