Zebra Moray Eel: A Striking and Docile Aquatic Gem!

Unleash the captivating beauty of the Zebra Moray Eel in your marine aquarium. With its distinctive banded pattern and surprisingly peaceful nature, this eel makes an extraordinary addition for dedicated aquarists.

Overview
The Zebra Moray Eel (*Gymnomuraena zebra*) is renowned for its bold, zebra-like black and white bands across a dark brown or reddish body. Unlike many other morays, it possesses a blunt, rounded snout and specialized crushing teeth, reflecting its unique diet. Generally docile and often active during the day, this fascinating eel explores its environment primarily through an acute sense of smell, navigating crevices and rockwork with grace despite its poor eyesight.

Care Level
Moderate. The Zebra Moray Eel is considered one of the most peaceful morays, making it suitable for peaceful to semi-aggressive community aquariums. While generally safe with fish, it will consume crustaceans and mollusks. Securely stacked rockwork is essential to prevent dislodgement by this powerful, albeit gentle, inhabitant.

Tank Essentials
A minimum tank size of 946 litres (250 gallons) is recommended for an adult Zebra Moray Eel, providing ample space and numerous secure hiding spots. A tight-fitting lid is crucial, as these eels are adept escape artists. Maintaining stable marine water parameters is paramount for their long-term health.

Diet
As a carnivore with crushing teeth, the Zebra Moray Eel primarily feeds on crustaceans, mollusks, and sea urchins. Offer a varied diet of meaty foods like shrimp, squid, clams, and occasional small fish. Adults should be fed once a week, while juveniles may require more frequent meals.
