Very nice. One pup in the litter? How long have you had the parents?

Two pups, but a leo got to one, and it got shredded... I've had the parents for 2 years, they are approx. 3 years old, female is around 45cm and the male around 35cm.
 
Congratulations and very well done!
I'm amazes this species has reproduced at such a small size,really interesting!
What diet do you feed them given this species is a notorious fussy feeder prefering worms (night crawlers) and fish to the usual foods eagerly taken by other species we keep?

I feed them a combination of prawns, fish fillet and weather loach! They aren't fussy at all! And yes, they are very small to be sexually mature!

Yep, I'll get pics when the water clears up, they mated again.
 
Wow congrats. This would probably happen alot more if people were dedicated to this species or even flowers. Most rays do not make it long enough or they get sold off because of size.
