yellow saltwater ray had pups

[jsshark1]

I got a new yellow ray this weekend, I still have her in a bare bottom tank, I keep them in that tank till they start eating and she would not eat any thing since she arrived .....
I just looked in the tank and two pups are swimming around with egg sacks.

I have them in a container in the tank with sand and a air line ..
they are on their back ,,,, upside down.......

any tips

are you experienced with SW rays??? cuz you sound pretty calm. I wold have been goin crazy

Probably popped them out early after a move. See if you can keep them upright.
They will need to absorb the yolk sac prior to them eating food. Got any better pics of them?

They look better with the top side up. Are they staying that way and swimming now??
