Giant Oceanic Manta Ray (Manta birostris). As its name suggests, the Giant Oceanic Manta Ray is generally larger than its smaller reef resident relatives, with average disc-widths of around 4-5 metres (13-16.5 ft) and in extremely large specimens exceeding 7 metres (23 ft). Large oceanic mantas might weigh up to 2 tonnes (4,440lbs).
The giant manta is commonly found offshore, while the reef manta, as its name suggests, is found inshore near coral and rocky reefs. Manta rays live in the open ocean, swimming continuously through the water column instead of resting on the sea floor like other rays. Although much of their time is spent near the surface, they have been known to dive to depths of 100 feet.
