Guessing her to be roughly 50 days.

Last feeding was 28 hours ago.

My lil pearly looking male got her. 2nd pic is of him.

She's about 12 across. He's 9. This will be his first litter and hers as well.

Been kinda busy as of lately. CoolMBU's female popped Monday. Pretty sure the lil man from above got her right after the divider came down. Duckman's old female (mother of VLDesign's pups) passed 100 days on Friday. Blondie from above is about halfway through. My lil 8.5" WC female that came in preggo is showing signs of being preggo again as well. Saw movement but have not confirmed yet.

:nilly:

Sounds like someone is going to be busy again with all those pups on the way.
Nice looking rays btw that pearly male is a stunner.
 
Some beautiful Marbles there Alan.
I think its fair to say as nice as the parent fish are the offspring they produce are even better regarding markings,this is also evident with black rays,for some reason longterm captive wild caught Leo's give birth to pups sporting bigger spots than their own, this can only be down to specialist foods we have at our disposal,what else could it be? wild caught Leo pups just don't seem to have the huge spots we see in captive bred.....another talking point..lol !!
 
What are you putting in the water LOL......... Congrats !
 
OH Wow those should be some fantastic Pups with that diversaty in Color!!!!!
 
Some searches on this site will tell you what I put in the water..... Hard work and patience. :)

Been at this for many years. Spent many years doing it wrong, which finally lead to at least heading in the right direction now. It has NOT been a fun adventure for me at all. Lots of ups and more then enough downs.

I'm still not doing something right or I wouldn't have so much trouble with the pups :(

Fishdog- You better figure out what I'm doin and start doing it too.... lol Otherwise when I send your pup I'm gonna feel ripped off for recieving nothing in return. :naughty:

Bingo. I heard a long time ago that the key to the real standouts is a huge color variation in mom and dad. They may not produce the same consistancy of quality as a like pair, but the occasional standouts are supposed to be just crazy. Could be a complete load of crap. One thing's sure..... We're gonna find out.
