Here is a pic of mine, this was taken in June, it is now August and he has grown quite a bit since.

Male, less than 3 yrs old with small parents. I bought from Aquaman 45 and this is a really nice, active fish with a real character - for instance if I get a pot of food out he will make sucking noises on the bottom of the tank that can be heard on the other side of the room.

I keep him with a young Marbled Motoro pup in a 300 gal (UKgals, I think this is a bit more than US Galls) tank.

Thanks, he is a real character and constantly sifts and shifts the sand yet sooo gentle with the little female pup.

Very nice! anyone else? I'm interested in seeing different varieties since they are so varied in pattern.

Here are a few variations found in Pearl Rays,this is the reason i believe these rays will soon overtake black rays in the must have stakes....just my opinion.

I think it's great that people are now doing selective breeding for rays. Too bad their reproductive cycle is so long.

Actually its a good thing. Rays can live for 30 years or more.

If they bred like rats, the market would crash.
