Common name: Brachysomophis eels

Brachysomophis is a genus of eels in the snake eel family Ophichthidae. These eels are known for their elongated bodies and are found in sandy or muddy substrates in tropical and subtropical marine waters. They are not common in the aquarium trade due to their specialized care requirements and large size. In the wild, they are interesting for their burrowing behavior and ability to blend into their environment, making them fascinating subjects for scientific study.
