Community with caution. 

Adult Length 60cm

Temperature Range 24°-28°

pH Range: 7.0-8.2

Special Requirements: Large tanks are a must. A minimum of 400 litres.Also a tight fitting lid as, if they can escape, they will!!!

Tanks Mates: Dispite what many people believe, the Moray is not an aggressive fish, providing tank mates are large enough to not be considered a meal. Infact, it is more important to ensure that tank mates won't nip at the eel rather than the other way round.

Feeding: . Moray are carnivorous and should be fed a wide variety of feed. To encourage them to feed on frozen or pellet feeds, tong feeding is the best way. It is also great fun!
