please post your pics of your pearl rays as pups.

ive seen some pups that look awsome like really fantastic then some pups like mine that look like decent marked young motoro.

i know it will take time before there pattern starts to develop properly this is why im not worried what they look like at the moment.
but even the guy i got mine off has pups from other litters that look alot different to the ones i got.

there are a couple of kinds of pearl, light and dark morphs. i asked for the dark ones because i wanted the pearls that look black when there large with the fine yellow/gold pattern but i dont think im gunner end up with those.

here are some pics of mine from the guy who supplied them

i have only had them 3 weeks and they are feeding fantastic, the female is very active but the male is very quiet.
they are moving into the 7x3 with black bare bottom in 2 weeks.

Remember after 12 months these will become beautiful swans .
Pearls have the most unatractive colour and pattern as babies .
(They still look so cute though)
After this they change from month to month ..Getting better and better.
They are the most interesting of all the rays because they are always changing .
