I just saw the program "monsterfish" on Nat Geo wild, and he was checking out big fishes from amazonas in Thailand. There was this 17(atleast when he started) year old guy who was one of the highest reputated stingray breeders in Thailand, and he had alot of the totally black leopoldies, they were pretty amazing..

When he was breeding the stingrays he had a pond full of males, droped a female in, started spraying water over the pond to simulate rain, and bam 2 minutes later he had a prego female. The pond was big, but only 30cm`s high water.
 
Didnt say it was leos, but what else could it be? Leos are black.. Can be crossbred, but still leo in there. And i dont think black\brown = totally black, so i absolutley assume it is leo, or Henlei, but they were way to black for "normal" henlei`s to be.
 
They were all motoro or motoro variants jeb hogan even says it.
I religiously watch those shows I don't remember even seeing one all black Leo their or even a single black ray ? I could be mistaken I'll have to download the episode again .
 
i'd love to see a completly black leo...last year, here in Brazil, a stunning leo with only 6 tiny spots on the body was caught, it was offered to a friend...he send me that picture... but none of us was drunk enough to pay that crazy price, lol...it was exported...maybe Japan
