Cheers to you all for the nice comments.
Yes she does look quite big this time,she had 2 pups the first time around and one the second,shes bigger this time than ever i think,theres definitely two in there this time so anymore would be a bonus.The pups were very large both times,approx a 5inch disc (12cm),i currently have 2 males one female so it would be nice for a couple of Girls to come through this time.
Just changing the subject slightly,a friend of mine Mr Tom Halvorsen,a well known specialist fish importer based in the UK has recently informed me that Firespot and Orinoco Marbles have just been put together and described as a completely new species,no longer are they classed as "Motoros"....Apparently they are now known as Potamotrygon Boesemani,..anyone else able to elaborate on this?

Thanks again.
 
Wow she does look big this time Richard. Hope all goes well with the birth. The pups get better every time I see a picture of them. :)

IMO they are marbles and people just change the names in attempts to make more money out of them... what classifies a marble vs a "king marble" IMO they are just HIGH quality marbles.... NOT a new species
