No way chief....... Lb for Lb Zero is "the" hero. When comparing claspers Lb for Lb if it's not "the" zero..... it's just a zero. LOL I don't know about you but I never imagined the day I'de be sitting on the internet arguing clasper dimensions......... LMAO. Good stuff. But you really want to settle this you need a tape to prove size......

The stunted bit was just a joke.....LOL It was just a thought passed along as to why mature at such a small size. One of the crazy theories that was passed along. I personally like the Scobina mixxed in idea.

Wierd you mention the mouth thing too.... Zero was able to eat whole pieces of shrimp from day one, something my other rays struggle with at 10 inches. Friggin thing has nasty teeth too.....

I hear you on the arguing about clasper dimensions, don't worry, I am not running for my tape measure, Yet!:ROFL:
 
nice...
 
i'm feeling that even these fish resemble a motoro, but its probably a different species with all the described, larger mouth, more teeth, big clasper at smaller size, which all point to a different animal all together.

or could still be a motoro varient that just comes from a different area... adapted these traits because of that...

Interesting... Yeah, mine had fully rolled claspers at about 8in too. Very nice pair by the way! Mine really isn't an aggressive eater though. I was thinking mine would be sweet if it bred with my female MM too. The markings on mine actually have marbling around them too. Very nice pickup!
 
FishDog Could you tell me what supplier you got them from in Nashville. Thanks!!!
