New Photos of My Motoros

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice rays. You may want to watch out for underfeeding the rays if you only feed once a day. They are so active that they will burn a lot of energy and they are a big fish. I feed mine market shrimp twice a day and they are still begging for more. Yours look to be healthy, though.

yah i hear what ur saying. i will start feeding them more pretty soon. their brand new to the tank so for a week i just needed to see how much they would take.

thanks for the heads up!

thank u! i hope it stays that way:)


Nice to see you over here at MFK!!! Welcome to the addiction. I was reading that you would just be satisfied with those to rays. I have a feeling that you are going to come across a nice marble or something along those lines and not be able to resist!!!! Nice setup!!!!Good luck:)

As much as i would love to have marbled motoros, unfortunately i cannot keep anymore rays in the tank. i fear already what i have is not enough! Even though i am aware of the sad truth that my tank will not be appropriate for motoros in a couple years; i can,t upgrade really... i dont know how to handle a full grown adult ray. when i say this i mean picking it up! out of my tank! im afraid of hurting it or even myself! i may give away my rays one day to one of you who live close to me. im not shipping them. ill give them away for free. but u have to come and get em! i think thats more then fair..

Here are a few new photos i took today. the first 3 are of them digging and blowing water in sand to search for food. the others are of my tank and them frolicking around. my favorite is the one were the female is on top of the male! most of the time its the other way around!

Hope you enjoy! please comment!

nice ray u got there!
what sand are u using? hard to maintain sand in the tank?
