Let's play the CASTEXI name game!

[Miles]

There are a TON of variations for Potamotrygon Castexi, so let's hear them.. pictures would be nice too, and maybe this can evolve into a Castexi ID thread!

Heres the ones from the top of my head;


Potamotrygon Castexi
Vemiculate River Stingray
Carpet Ray
Otorongo
Jaguar
Estrella
Star
Tigrinus
Tigrillo
Motelo
Tortoise
Hawaiiana
Flower


Any others?

I would like to read (AND SEE) about the different variations..

Fresh from Peru, I'll try to get some pics of them in the pond tomorrow.

Here are some Pics of the ones I had& have -

1. My Dark Otorongo male 3 years ago
2. Otorongo on the left, Estrella(Star) on the right
3. Otorongo Pair (male in front)
4. Dark Otorongo in front, Estrella in the back
more pics will follow, especially of my actuell castexi collection

I´d say you can´t ID them all correct, there are often ones u can´t say if they are now Otorongo or Tigrillo or Motello or Hawaiana, they have something from both. Every Castexi is a Unikate

Here are a couple pics of my female. I have found out that the motelo, tortoise, and turtle are names for the same ray. She was sold under the turtle name.
