Pregnant Stingrays?

[Cichlid23]

I have these male and female cortez stingrays and a few days ago I noticed a few bite marks on the female and the male’s claspers were rolled. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out if she was actually pregnant that would be great. Sorry if the picture is bad she wouldn’t stop moving.

It's hard to tell atm. Alot of times there is a "mess" in the tank after breeding.

Is there a way down the line aside from the female getting bigger? I didn’t see them the day before so the tank could have very well got cleaner in appearance by the I saw it.

Usually there will be a clump of sperm stuck on a filter or floating around in the tank. This is usually when you know they bred and obviously later on the back hump.

I wasn’t at my house Friday or Saturday and didn’t see them until Sunday night so if there was sperm I could have easily missed it. About how long before the hump becomes noticeable?

After a couple months you should start to see the back rise and it should become more noticeable an plump as time goes on. Plan on birth anywhere between 3-5 months after mating if you think that they have mated.
