Potamotrygon Henlei - Very similar to the leopoldi except they spots are not as vibrant and they carry on to the under belly where as leopoldi have plain under bellys. Grow to around 24' in Diameter. Expect to pay between £100 - £400.
My ray is a Potamotrygon leopoldi (to my best knowledge) and, along with Potamotrygon henlei is member of the so called "Black Ray" group. Both are said to be among rays labeled as "easy" to keep.
