Look like a Mantilla??

[ray777]

I have a female Mantilla that looks very close to this ray that is a hybrid Motoro/Pearl. What do you guys think. Here is the link to mine. http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=102911

Here is the link to the hybrid. http://www.potamotrygon.nl/raykeeper_tp/t.p. pic3.htm

I think they look pretty close and just adds to the topic of hybrids in general.

yours is alot darker and I can see some round dot's it looks like on the hybrid, but you do have a very good looking ray.

Close but no cigar. Nice marking on your ray.

somewhat similar but different pattern.

I think that Mantilla are hybrids harvested out of the wild.

I also think that no one actually has any clue on stingray ID, except for those who scientifically ID'ed them.
