WOW big change, if i had to guess, i would say somewhere down the lines, there is black ray blood in it... i would guess its a motoroxleo that was cast aside because it wasnt an sp, and then crossed back to a motoro at some point..... but given your location... we will never know

Thanks, intresting thoughts, I know we'll never know for sure ;-)

Thanks, he's been eaiting a mix of fish, shrimps and blood worms. Grown quite a bit since last update ...

Very nice and great progress. Looks like he needs a girlfriend

Nice looking ray. What size is he? Do you always feed him until he gets that fat? He looks pregnant.

Hello,
in Germany were some Leopoldi x Motoro/Marbled hybrids which looked very much the same.
Can´t say if yours is Leo/Motoro x Marbled, Marbled x Leo/Motoro, Leo x Marbled or Leo x Motoro/Marbled but for sure it has some of these Genes.

On a Chinese Board I saw Leo/Motoro x Pearl which looked pretty cool too - http://bbs.myarowanas.com/dispbbs.asp?boardid=134&Id=170827&page=3

thanks for the commments...I know I will never know what bloodlines he have as I did not see the paarents. Leo+ Motoro of some variety seems to be a good bet though. It doesn't matter really. I like him and think he has a beutiful pattern thats all
