This pup came in this week. Wild caught, 4-5". Part of me wants to say its stressed out, but its the only one in the few dozen that came in that looks like this. All the others have strong orange, or dark spots. Opinion?

Stress? Stay this way? Darken up?

Last Pic is with flash...

it will darken up in time, i had a male whos centre spots were that sharp yellow colour like yours, and base brown was also like yours, it its not quite dark and the looks like a normal motoro, but i guess each fish is different so you never know :)

nice ray regardless.

I had a motoro that looked like that. Unfortunately it didn't survive shipping well. I'll get pics up tonight when I get home. I was told it was an oddball color variant.
