New spot o motrygon

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very nice and unusually marked ray. Cant help with names though, I tend to not name them but everytime I turn around the wife is coming up with girlie names that I have to shoot down. :ROFL:

That's exactly why I name them. IF I don't and the girlfriend coins a stupid name it tends to stick, that or they get named after a stupid habbit the ray has. There was a male here known as the rock chucker for banging rocks on the bottom of the tank when hungry.
 
Wild caught hybrid???

Not saying this lil fella isn't a hybrid, BUT if it is, it's a naturally occurring one.....

This guy has figured out how to beat Odoe to floating food sticks. Just waits for them to get caught up in the floating plants and pics them out.


well mine was WC

yours has a cleaner pattern tho.

Nice Looking ray DB. Where was he caught? BTW 100% believe there are naturally occurring hybrids("Mantillas" being the best example).

Yup, wild caught......

He was brought in with Marbles. I expect him to Marble up eventually. The female doesn't have much Marbling yet either, but after having a Marble or 2 over the years I'd like to think I can spot a touch of potential ;) IF I'm wrong and he turns out to be a plain ol Peruvian style Motoro then I'll be the first to admit I done buggered up, cause I'm thinking Marble all the way.

No clue on collection point. Asked but never got a clear answer......

I had a "Mantilla" that looked like the average "Mantilla" EXCEPT that mine was actually a CB Motoro X Hen crossed back with Motoro.

Very cool... I would trust your eye on marbles anyday! Gl. and yea a lot of first gen hybrids seem to be "mantilla" lol thats why I say they are natural hybrids. When I met Richard Ross at K1 I brought it up to him and he said he thinks the exact same thing... Keep us updated on how he turns out!
 
Nice pattern on that one.
