I just received two yellow spot sting rays and we'll just say they really like each other. Anyone know what the gestation time is for them or where I could find out?

Thanks

I'm not certain of the gestation period for the species, but i'd surmise that it'd be in the 3 - 4 month range. I once acquired a female that was gravid, she bore two pups, only one of them survived (the other died shortly after birth :().

I'm not sure, but you might be able to find that kind of information out in Scott Michael's Sharks and Rays book. I don't own it, and haven't looked through it in a long time, so I can't say for sure if it does.

Wolverine,
Thanks I actually had the book on order when I posted this. I just received the book and its very good. It does look like 3-4 months. Thanks for the posts
