Now that we hace new pictures of Alice, I can't stop sharing them. Maybe it's mother's love, but I think that she is beautiful. As close as we can figure, her span is 36 inches now. She came up the other night and let me pet her. I stroked her between her eyes for about 2 minutes straight. She is such a ham, too. I think that she poses for us. The camera comes out and so does she. So, sorry if you are getting sick of her, but I can't help sharing. :P Considering we took 38 pictures in the course of 10 minutes...

more very nice pics :)

Keep posting, we never get tired of good pics!
Alice has beautiful eyes.
Isn't it fun to touch a big octopus?

What type of camera did you use? on automatic or did you tweak the settings?

Nice pics, Eagle Ray! She's a Vulgaris, right? I remember she was sold as a pygmy..

We aren't sure of her species. We think that she may be a Briareus. Yes she was sold as a pygmy, but now, talking to the LFS, he says that he sold us a "bigmy" and that we must have misunderstood. :D . All we know is that she is great, and the added expense of the 90 gallon was totally worth it.
I'm so glad others think that she is beautiful.

Great shots!!! Glad to hear she is happy!!

I purchased a 65 gallon tank that is now sitting in my basement (empty). After doing tons of reading...it would be so great to have a sea monster in my home like this. Is the tank you have big enough for this amazing creature?

Does it eat a lot more?

You are an inspiration. You should be a proud momma!

Yes she was sold as a pygmy, but now, talking to the LFS, he says that he sold us a "bigmy" and that we must have misunderstood. :D .
