Yellow Head Moray Eel

Gymnothorax rueppelliae. Gymnothorax fimbriatus.

The Yellow Head Moray Eel is a medium sized species of moray that can attain lengths up to 30” or more as an adult. A predator by nature, the Yellow Head Moray Eel requires two or three substantial meals per week comprised of meaty foods such as live or frozen fish such as silversides, krill, shrimp, or crustacean flesh offered on a feeder stick. Moray Eels have poor eye sight and should never be fed by hand to avoid injury. It is imperative to be cautious with Moray Eels as they possess powerful jaws along with seriously sharp teeth.
