Can tell me more about this ray? Like is it a huge ray similar to otorongo? Pure or hybrid? Maturity size? Easy to keep?

Potamotrygon yepezi is a scientific name for rays from the Maracaibo Region (Venezuela). Most rays in the trade called "yepezi" come from Peru so they are no true yepezi. The only true yepezi in the last years was a ray with the trade name "Maracaibo ghost".

"Ozelot" is only a trade name. They named this ray "Ozelot" because there is no described species with such a pattern.

Can tell me more about this ray?

The ray from the German LFS was only 8.8" in diameter with full developed clasper. So this could be a smaller species. I have no info on the care of this ray and where he came from
 
i would say treat it as humerosa type rays and fugure a 24" ray disk size to be safe... most of the common brown rays get between 18"-24" disk sizes anyway.... feeding and water params keep the same for all rays for the most part

That probably is the best advice.
