No full tank shots?
Anyway horrible aquascaping as far as I can tell. Not much of a 'show' tank.

The circles are silicon glue blobs since they have used double sheets of glass (cheaper than a single thick pane) to make a stronger bottom.

How do you know when rays are gravid? Just from change in body shape or do they change colour/behaviour?

Its as if they have 2 tennis balls trying to escape from thir rear on either side. Same as the Xenomorph larvae stage emerges.
