Potamotrygon motoro is a popular species within the aquarium trade but requires a significant commitment owing to its large size and specific needs. A diet rich in meaty foods ensures health and vitality. It also requires a sandy substrate to prevent injuries and provide natural behavior opportunities. While relatively hardy, it is sensitive to poor water conditions.
