Update on Marble (For Spotfin)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
very nice, have you ever noticed how the disk of zero is shapped differently then the other motoros?
I noticed on my leos they have more of an oval pattern like zero does then the rounder fat front to skinnier tail end disk of the motoros
 
Wow! They are all looking great. Awesome collection you have. Thanks for posting the pics.
 
These are all my Juvies...... There are some nice ones on the other side of the fence as well. (the adults)

Kev, I'm glad someone else feels there's more to Zero than just a Motoro...... Really wierd thing is his claspers were unrolled when I got him @ a lil under 6 inches across.

the one you got from spotfin and Kate are both VERY nice...

I'll have to dig through some pics, but if you were to put them both side by side at the same age they would look VERY similar. "Kate" is close to a year older.

Thank you ALL for the comments......
 
^^ Thanks..... It was NOT easy.... LOL A lot of work went into tracking these things down.... Easy to find a nice batch, much more difficult to insure there are no relations in the group. The ONLY 2 related rays are the 2 lil male Marbles. They are brothers.

The whole idea behind this frustrating hunt is so that upcoming raykeepers don't have to go through the same trouble I did in finding nice ones. Hopefully the adults will start breeding soon and hopefully the juvies as well in the next year. I feel Marbled Motoros beauty to price ratio is unmatched by ANY stingray out there, but yet nice ones are rediculously hard to find...... And for the love of this hobby I really don't think they should be. Everyone should have the opportunity to have one. problem is when you decide you want one you have to go on some wild goose chase that results in a gamble by buying a lil juvie and hoping it turns into a gorgeous ray. I feel you should be able to look at the parents and feel confident about your investment.

Maybe I'm crazy..... Maybe there's just something about Marbles........
 
Thank you Bruce, and Siluk, your avatar is drop dead beautiful.......
