That is a beautiful fish, do they only have 1 at a time?

Nice looking pattern on it, kinda reminds me of a Penang eruption.

Yes I am he was born 8/1/2011 at 2:08 p.m. and it has been one crazy life changing event since. He weighed 6 lbs 14 oz and was 19.5 inches thing didn't go great at the hospital and the wife ended up having to have a c-section. But everyone is doing fine just lots and lots of sleepless nights around here. We lucked out and had one of those babies that has his days and nights mixed up. Thanks for asking Pat I will post some pics whenever I have a free minute which anymore just doesn't happen.

Hi Sean,

They can have any number of pups per litter. So far his pair had one the first time, two pups the second time, and one this time. I will have to show some pics of all his rays he has now sometime. He owns 9 rays plus this pup makes 10 and he is in the process of building a 16' x 3' pond in his garage now. Right now he has 5 rays in his 200 gallon tank with 6 wild discus, 2 rays in a 110 gallon plastic feeding troth, and another 2 rays in a 110 gallon plastic feeding troth.
