Hey, thought I would post a picture of this ray that one of my LFS has labeled as a Ceja ray.
The picture really doesn't do it justice. It was a beautiful ray.

Yes very nice looking rays and there are two of them. They have been at the store here for 3 weeks and adjusted well and are slurping down minnows like crazy.
Yeah, I have since read a little about them, not because I want one but because of just curiosity. Apparently, they can reach nearly 7-8 feet in diameter! What is it doing in a fish store?! I guess it goes up on my WTF list, along with the red tail catfish, alligator far, arapima, sturgeon, and several others. I know these stores are trying to make money but do they really not have a care in the world about selling these fish. Or, do they just figure it is a fish that won't last long in an aquarium and so the customer will be back sooner for more fish, which is more sales.
I think in most instances the LFS doesn't have any idea on the size when ordered. Or it may just get sent to them as a sub. I know several instances when we ordered from Columbia and half our order was subbed with rays and we ordered no rays. In most instances if you do not put a sub down on the order it's sellers choice. So if they had alot of rays to get rid of that week... you will be getting rays.
