behavior never seen before in marble

[cjfrontlovr]

a newly acquired female ray displayed this wierd behavior while starting a water change tonite..has anyone seen this happen before? she kept this pose for a good 5-10 minutes..after awhile she returned to normal cruising around..i had introduced a larger male a while earlier, that was the only change..anybody seen this in their rays?? sorry for the poor picture quality, i was in a hurry!

Well at least it doesn't look like disk curl, so you have that going for you.

I have seen it many times, was something in your water that was bothering the ray. Has she stopped doing this?

mine did this and then died the next night keep an eye on her, csx is right.

Now that I think back for me it was a chlorine problem I was having with large water changes. Since your were doing a water change I would say that was probably just the problem do you use dechlor?
