Do marble Motoros look like normal Motoros when they are pups? When do they get the maze looking markings? I got 2 rays that are mmxmotoro hybrids and wanted to know if I should be seeing markings by now or not. They have awesome color and have more spots than any motoro I've ever seen befor. They also have more little spots that look like they are coming in around the ends of the disk. The breeder I would like thank you for them, they are nice and plump! Thank you!
 
Id say around 8-10" theyll have the start of their patterning but i am no expert, sure the ray gurus will chime in soon.

My two pups are about a couple months old and around 5" or so, and I can see the marbling starting to show on both of them.

So I would think that since your pups are m x mm, then it might not show the marbling in till the pups are bigger or they won't have or have little marbling at all.

They look awesome dude! Mine are only like 3&1/2 maybe 4 a crossed maxed and I'm working on balking them up still. I hope they have some marble in them but if not owell, I still love them.
 
Some pure marbles are born with marbling and others take awhile for it to develop. Mmxmotoro may or may not develop marbling. Most of my pups out there that I've seen have faint marbling and tons of spots. Post up some pics when you get a chance.
