So Was this a good pick up?

I got her this morning about 10AM she's a bit skinny and had a little fungus around her stinger where the guard was. I got the guard off of her and most of the fungus came off with it. I only paid $240 for her. She is about 12inch disk. She was labeled as a otorongo and I was just curious is that's what she really is. She was imported on i think he said Monday last week from south America. Was this a fair price for her. I just had to get her she was amazing.

Her still in the box

right after i got her in the tank.

Very nice! And yes she is a otorongo. And $240 for that I would definitely pay that!

Great pickup at that price. They get huge and fast. You'll be looking at around a 30" disk when fully grown. It'll probably put on at least 8" in a year and probably more. What size tank are you keeping it in?

 

[furcifer158]

she is my 125 right now, but I just got a horse trough that has a 5 foot diameter that they will all be going in. also would my male motoro or male humerosa breed with her?

 

[skynoch]

They could breed. We've seen some pretty interesting hybrids coming out lately.

good i asked him to order me in a male too, but that could be some time. I just can't get over the priced I paid for her. She has already started to get darker, so hopefully she will start eating soon and get nice and fat. I want sting ray pups!!!!! but I still have a year or two till then i bet
