Reticulata Stingray Hoarder

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very cool pattern on that second one! I love the thick 'netting' it's got. If you keep posting these pics of such great looking retics I'll end up having to get some!

lookin good miles... now you need to start on motoros

Too big! Don't really want to start doing ponds/pools until I move houses and/or build a custom fish room for them.. the 375g is my biggest tank and I don't plan on upgrading anytime soon. (would love an 8x4')

I think I am all done for now.. except for it looks like I have too many males, hopefully I can do some trading in the future. Would love to throw in a female hystrix, scobina, humerosa, orbignyi or yepezi.. just something different. I am going to grow them out to the 8-10" "mature" range, so hopefully they will hold a little value with another ray breeder come trade talks..


Thanks for all the kind words everyone.. all 5 babies are eating, and I will post updates in a few weeks after the 4x PraziPro bath is done..

You know what I think! I want ! :drool: But she is yours, you keep her. But if you ever have any other chicks you are not interested in (say they can't keep up in growth rate and you need a cool male :naughty:) then you let me know..

I will have to come check them out in person! it's always so different.. You should post some pix up anyway!
 
very nice retics miles. i have the same problem as well too many males, 3 males and 1 female. as for the person who said they saw them for +200, the only time i have seen them for that much was for a red retic which one of my retics has the same exact colorations as red retic which makes me think maybe i have a red retic or they are selling some bs overpriced retic.

Local Fish Stores can demand whatever price they wish depending on the area and rarity of fish.. I see some fish owners do this to fish they don't really intend on selling because of rarity, but that lures in the buyers. (rays, e-eels, mbu's, etc)

Doesn't surprise me someone would try to charge $250 for a retic.. haha
