I'm new to MonsterFishKeepers and just got my first freshwater stingrays a few days ago.

These rays were sold to me as hystrix, but I'm pretty sure they're not. The first one is a she, diameter about 9", second one is a he, diameter 7". Could someone help me with the identification. They're both eating fine, I'm feeding them with bloodworm, shrimp and herring, twice a day. Is that ok?

Thanks a lot!

think they call that a puruvian motoro but maybe wrong im not that good on brown ray id
 
That males is awesome! these do look like Motoro variants.

2x per day feeding is great as long as they eat everything you give them. Clean up after their meals very well. Once they get larger, most people cut back to once per day.

possibly peru flowers the top one im almost 100% certian but the other ?????
 
Same as calgary said, atleast the top is a "peru Flower". I have 3 of them myselfe, they seem to lose pattern as they grow, the biggest i have is totally brown now, i can hardly see the spots. If i dont remember totally wrong, one of them looked a bit like the second one, i had big expectations. Were sold as motoro "marble" to me.
