Default Unidentified Ray

Hi guys/gals,

Anyone able to ID the ray?



Spotted at Dayang last weekend. Looks like it's pregnant.


*Sorry for the OT since it's not really related to photography*

Porcupine ray, Urogymnus asperrimus. Feeds on fish (wrasses) and crabs hiding in the sand. Is considered rare. Good find

Cheers, Jeff

that's because the picture just looks like the ClubSnap logo to many of the users over ther (including me). I came here to see if I can provide a better link or some other solution. Of course the pic looks the same to me here.

Thanks for the correction Zipps. Both Jeli and I could see the pics until some of my friends stated otherwise.

Anyway, the ray was spotted at:
Dive Site: Dayang Tip

Depth: 8-12m (Shallow)

Also, there are loads of triggers there. Becareful.
