Had the opportunity to met a fish keeper last night. He has a very immpressive set up. Of particular interest are his rays. He has 2, a female motoro and a female orbignyi/humerosa/sp. The motoro is about 16" dia and the other is just huge. I guess at least 22" dia, and 3' from nose to tail.

Sweeeet :D I think its an orbignyi because of the eyebrows ... right?

I was thinking that too. She also has a smooth back.
 
I want to see someone cross Motoro x Orbignyi and produce a Mantilla so we can quit talking about it..

I should have the pups in 2 months
16-17'' Male Orb.(identical to the female above) 18-20'' Female motoro


PS, I actually got the orb from spotfin a few years back

PSS, the female has usually had 4 pups each litter(3X), all prior were motoro with motoro
