I have been watching my female Motoro closely of late. She just seems to be getting thick. Not 100% sure, but I think I saw some movement today. She was laying buried in the sand and I observed slow ripples in the area right around the tail.

What do you think? Is it possible or do I just have pup fever from seeing all the other postings?

Yes that is one possible mate. The picture is a little deceiving. He is not as big as her, but he is around 9"-10" disc. There is a similarly sized marble ray in there as well.

This is a better pic of the two of them.

Seen any bite marks or chasing activity a few months ago. Looks like the male has the goods to get the job done. Very possible she is preggo.

There were a few marks on the disc but nothing real bad so I didn't think anything of it. I do remember when I got my male marble in there was some aggression from the Motoro male towards the marble male. Never saw them bothering her though.
