My First Baby!!

[Gumby79]

Well finally my motoro girl gave birth to her liter, The crappy thing was I was out of town when it happened but Oh well. She apperentlly had two pups but the one was still born crap. The soul survivor is a male and is so small as you can see from the pictures but looking good. I am so happy and and while I had the parents separated the father of the pup has been hitting up my large female marbled motoro so hopefully I will have another batch in the oven soon! Also thanks for all the great advise I recieved here from everybody helping me along the way.

I have my brother in law staying at my place and he was around at the time of birth.

Water is 7ph, 0amm, 0nitrite, 20-40nitrate, temp 82 degrees, and I do 33% twice a week water changes and there were 4 other small rays in with them at the time. I feed them mostly raw prawns (12 med-large size prawns a day)
Hope this helps.
