Scientific name: Congrogadus
Congrogadus is a genus of eel-like fishes known as the congrid eels, belonging to the family Congridae. These eels are found in the Indo-Pacific region and are characterized by their elongated bodies and reduced fins. Congrogadus species are not common in the aquarium trade due to their size and specific care requirements. However, for advanced hobbyists with large tanks, they can be fascinating subjects. They typically inhabit rocky crevices and require a diet of meaty foods such as shrimp and fish.
