Common name: Moray Eels

Scientific name: Gymnothorax

Gymnothorax is a genus of moray eels found in warm and temperate seas around the world. Known for their elongated bodies and distinctive jaw structure, they are a fascinating addition to larger marine aquariums. Moray eels of this genus are generally not reef-safe as they may prey on smaller fish and invertebrates. They require hiding places and a secure lid to prevent escape. Hobbyists should handle them with care due to their powerful bite.
