Here is a new video of Batgirl taken last night in honor of her 1st birthday today. Please excuse the Spongebob audio in the background, YouTube's audio swap wasn't being cooperative this morning.

That's a sweet ray! Happy bday to her!
 
How big is she now? How has her growth rate compared to other motoros you've bred or her littermates?

As a side note, what is that plant in the middle of the tank?
 
Thanks, we will give her all your messages! LOL. She has not grown as fast as our other rays. She is about 6" in diameter, maybe a 6 1/2". But healthy and happy. She is partial to frozen krill as her food. Despite many attempts to get her to eat other things this is all she REALLY wants.

As far as the plant goes, I'm not sure off the top of my head. We have had it for years strapped to that piece of driftwood. When Batgirl decides to rest she goes behind it.
 
shes a very cool ray :) her face kinda looks like a shark :P

the plant is an Anubias but not 100% on the exact ID possibly A. nana or A. barteri.. pretty easy to keep plant very tough, doesnt need alot of light :)
 
Thanks for the plant ID. You are right, it is very easy to care for, we have had it for probably 6+ years or so and it has thrived and we have literally done nothing for it. It has been moved from one tank to another over the years and it never seems to bother it.

Batgirl does have a very cute face. She has a lot of personality that probably doesn't really come out in the video. Thanks again for the comments. :)
