The pearl and a smaller leo (maybe offspring) were in a tank together, separate from the other rays. In the picture the pearl is resting in the front on hard bottom, looked like cement. The rest of the tank was all cobble and rock, no sand. And lots of plecos too. They didn't look too happy.


I was there a couple of months ago with my girlfriend and the kid's, and the tank that had the black spotted ray's also had a pima in it, and the tank with the pearl and leo had a armatus in it. Was it still the same when you were there??? Also when we were there they just did a cleaning in the big display with the RTC's and we could only see about 6ft into the display cause it was so cloudy, were you able to view that display clearly, if so you are very lucky, cause there was some real monsters in there....:irked:

Anybody who is thinkin about goin here, it is a very fun place to spend a day and I had no complaint's, except that we have to go back to see the big display that was cloudy the day I was there.:irked::irked::irked: But it will definitely be worth the trip back.
 
Beautiful rays!

I didn't see the pima in the ray tank. I think the armatus was still in the tank with the pearl.
The big display tank downstairs from the ray tank was clean:) Lots of big fish in there; big motoro rays, a big orbignyi/humerosa, pacus, many cichlids and big cats as well.

Neat, it would be even better if they used real plants in the ray display!
