How big do some of the common rays get? I have read so much conflicting info on them (motoros, leos, hystrix, flower). How big have you actually seen these guys get. I have read a couple of places that motoros only get around 16 inches in the aquarium, then another place says 30 inches plus. It would be nice to find a one stop shop for species info. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a motoro thats 20inches and growing like crazy. Most rays out there get over 24inches.. most over 30inches. But some take longer than others
 
Most get 24-36" across in disc size.. Some stay smaller, but are much harder to obtain.

www.StingraySource.com has good info on a variety of species, if the dolt who is running the site would just finish updating it.

Kidding.. It's a great site and glad someone from MFK created it. :)
 
Thanks for the replies, that sight is the first I have seen that shows a listing of rays. I have found ones that list one or two. Does anyone know how big a yepezi gets full grown?
 
yepezi get around 18"
 
a that is a lot of rays, my LFS has 6 kinds of tea cup rays
