I got him from a guy on ebay, for £45 he has more of them to sell if anyone interested?

Beautiful ray! Pity they're not available in Australia, they're the only freshwater creature I still want to this day.

Your right it is just a normal motoro, the guy was sent it to him as a perv. but he thinks a normal one to, any ways i still love him , i have had a hystrix about a year ago but i killed her i had NO idea of how delicate they are, she died of ammonia burn, but ive made sure that there is no ammonia in my tank now lol, and the nitrates are where they should be as are the nitrites and the PH is at a steady 7.4-7.5 he is feeding on Bloodworm ATm until i find a shop that sells cockles. Thanks for the comments

id recommend earthworms for fattening him up quick,it works a treat,you can order them online if you dont wanna ruin your garden.small rays go crazy for river shrimp too
