Put some text, pictures and a small movie online today about this super agresive new species. It is on the species chapter of my site. Enjoy.

Very cool rays! I see that some are already sexually mature at a very small size. How big are these males 20-25cm? Any breeding attempts or are the females too small?
I see what you mean with the agression, the diskedges are pretty beat up, do they bite eachother alot all the time or just during feeding sessions?
 
very cool. cant wait to see more of these guys in the hobby.
 
Hi Frank,
very nice!
Is this species really that agressive in your tanks?
I heard, that the huge "bitemarkings" at the edge of the disks of wc individuals of P. boesemani would possibly come from piranhas :confused:

Those boesemani are GORGEOUS! Thanks for sharing that pic!

I'm curious as to what you mean by super aggressive... during mating, feeding, towards non ray tankmates, towards non boesemani rays, towards each other, or just in general?
