SCIENTIFIC NAME - Gymnomuraena zebra

COMMON NAME - Zebra Moray

SIZE - 4.9 ft. (1.5 m)

MIN. AQUARIUM SIZE - 55 US Gal. ( 208 L) (species only tank)

FOODS AND FEEDING - Meaty marine fair, feeder crabs to help acclimate, Feed a min. 2 times a week to satiation

REEF COMPATIBILITY - Will eat ornamental crustaceans, may topple unsecured rock work and corals

CAPTIVE CARE - Ideal for the community fish tank, this is a docile moray that poses no threat to the fish community or the aquarist. Hiding places large enough to conceal its entire body are a must. Juveniles accept food more readily and will take a wider variety of marine fare than the older specimens. Provide fish flesh, clam meat, scallop, and squid all from a feeding stick. Gently nudge the eel’s snout with the food on and acrylic feeding stick.
