I have a female Motoro and a male Retic. Im not trying to breed them, but is there a chance they could mess around?
 
Life finds a way if ur a jurassic park fan lol...but im pretty sure retics are hard to breed in general. Would make a cool hybrid imo but we'll wait for the ray guru's to give their info/opinions.

how big are they? It normally takes at leas a year for them to be sexually mature.
 
I honestly do not think it would happen. Hybrids are difficult to produce as rays tend to go for their own species unless you have multiple rays and move males and females around to spark romance. Retics are a different kind of ray. If it did happen then that would be exciting for sure

I would say hybrids are fairly easy to breed as if they are the only two rays in the tank they will give it a go

You will stand a better chance with a male motoro and a female retic as male motoro have a much higher sex drive than a male retic

It may happen but I think the female motoro will outgrow the male fast and she will be to big for him to handle
