"P13" - Potamotrygon Leopoldi
Polka Dot Ray, Black Ray, Eclipse Ray

Definitely one of my favorites; fairly easy to raise despite of its heavy price tag. This polky is probably one of my most active ray that constanly eats a LOT!; mainly shrimps, earthworms, and even mealworms. This activeness got him into trouble with my lil' Red tail golden arowana which took a bite out of polky. No need to worry; disc damage in rays are common and will heal in no time. Disc is very smooth. P. Leopoldi has at 2-3 rows of spines along its tail. My Polky has a bad habit on picking on other rays by taking a bite out of other ray's disc especially during feeding time.

Below: Moving polky from the 60 gallon tank to a 100 gallon tank. Used a large bowl to scoop up ray during move. My homeboy Joel from Ban's Dragon helps out and tries to chow down ray soup. (sorry dude)

Joel Retard.. hehe
