Marbled Motoro or Aparico Ray

[JasonsPlecosCichlids]

I got this gal at Gerbers Saltwater Warehouse last week for my male Motoro. They had it labled as a Marbled Motor for $300. I bought it but after looking at it, she doesnt look like the other Marbles on the net. But she looks exactly like a Aparico Ray.

Was this a good price or did I get the shaft?

Potamotrygon cf. yepezi.

Worth very little.

Never buy someting you are not 100% sure about.

nice, so whats she worth? She is about 6" across. Im headed back there to see what they will do about this.

Agree!
Bares little resemblance to an Ocellated ray (Aparico) either.

50-100 bucks.

Also, the shop can ask what ever they want for their fish. Its your own job to tell if its a good deal or not.

agree, on both points, but as the store misidentified you should legally be able to get a refund unless they put out a sign saying 'buyer beware" (caveat emptor) or 'sold as seen'

Exactly. You got jobbed. Try to take it back or get a partial refund if you still want it.
