Flower

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
That's a beauty. When I first started reading about rays the flowers caught my eye the most. Are they tougher to care for? I read they easily get out competed for food and have a more shy personality.

Looks great!! I should try one now since i have some more tank space

Are those some scars i see on the one side of her? How does she do with the blackies?

Thanks all.
When first acquired at 5" she was very stressed and took a couple of months of being separated until she bounced back. She's now 12-13"ish and is in with a pair of BDs and a 15" Motoro.
I would compare her temperament to a Hystrix.
She has no problem competing for food, in fact pounces harder on food than a other ray I have had, just seems to take a little longer to eat and actually swallow.

Yeah Trev, had a Synodontis in there for a couple of weeks and woke up one morning to him gnawing on her, only her too. She's healed up nicely though.

My favorite ray. How I miss mine, came close to picking up a trio for the 600. And after seeing this one I still might......

That flower is beautiful!

Thanks man!
If, I recall correctly you had one hell of a specimen as well. Get yourself another one.

A really fine example of a Flower showing perfectly where its common name has come from.

I'm a huge fan of this species also.
