What kind of Ray is this - ID needed

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Reminds me a little bit of these un-ID rays.. but not the same tail

Looks a bit Dumerelli too.. there are MANY brown ray variations out of the northwest part of South America that we are not aware of.. due to government control, river control, laws, etc..


BUT.. I think we fail to realize that all potamotrygon can hybridize.. there are probably variants we are unaware of because they are not FISHED or PHOTOGRAPHED regularly.. It looks like in the pix that their are 2 of the same ray in the tank. Judging by the tail and collection zone, they look to be in relation to a Flower ray..

Who knows... :screwy::screwy::screwy:

okay, I will, left it a work though, will check tomorrow. I think I already know that I am NOT paying $500 for this ray though!

the king of being the cheapest seller wants how much...... just tell him you can get the same ray for 200 from another guy and then he will sell it to you for 150:ROFL:

not that bad if it's healthy.....I paid $600 for a pair of curling marble motoros and 1 died 4 days later and the other has never started eating and on it's way out. So like I said if it's healthy it's fine but inspect the ray carefully
