I've had alot of rays breed over time and have had alot of wierd crossed and purebreds and found some of my patterns when pups to be amazing and one of the best patterns. I've seen to find as they grow older and the color and the pattern change it just wasn't what you had hoped. I've also seen alot of pics on equally or better pups posted on here and heard alot of ranting and raving about them at the time but just wondering how many of them kept there awe over time. I would just be curious to see what highly regarded pups kept up to the hype or just lost there glory after awhile and also what ugly ducklings became the swan. I'm not looking to knock anyone but to me it's good info for people buying pups to know what they are getting into.

Falkneri I got at about 6" and butt ugly

In less than a year it was 14" and looked stunning. Sold him recently because they do not stay like this .

Easily one of the most attractive and eye-catching rays I have seen. Love the huge spotting and contrast. Definitely one of the few rays I would dig into my savings for.
I to have been disappointed in how the spotting in Falks breaks up as the size increases, dont know if they all do or not but I guess that will decided as those who have theirs mature.
