Good looking group of rays. Did his clasper grow slowly or did they shoot out in a short period of time. It is my belief that when an immature ray is kept with a mature one and they are ready to breed the maturing process is sped up. This happened with my jags. The male was not even close to being mature but one month with the female he grew over an inch and his claspers sprouted out. Your guys looks to be mature now if he will breed or not is another question.
 
beautiful stock you have there! where are you located? if close to NY I may be interested if you do decide to sell one or two or those beauties.
 
Just cause claspers are unrolled doesn't mean they have any idea how to use them. I had a male here for 2.5 years with unrolled claspers and just now figured out how to use them. Sometimes it happens right away, sometimes it takes years..... Just gotta be patient.
