Echidna is a genus of moray eels found in the family Muraenidae. These eels are known for their elongated bodies and distinctive jaws, which lack pelvic fins. They are nocturnal predators, feeding on crustaceans and small fish. Echidna species are often hardy and adaptable to aquarium life, making them a popular choice for larger marine tanks. They require hiding places and a secure lid to prevent escape. Their fascinating behavior and unique appearance make them an interesting addition to a reef or fish-only aquarium.
