FREE Moray Eel!!!

[Coral Keeper]

The Moray Eel is not mine, but I though someone might be looking for one. You have to have a very large set up because he is 4 ft long. Here is the link. I don't know if they will ship or not, so you'll have to ask them your self.

wow what a monster

 

[Coral Keeper]

Yeah, I wish I had a large enough tank for it.(Largest SW tank I have is a 28 gallon HQI lol)

 

[Nate82]

ha mine's a 15g i'm sure he could fit... it'd be nice and cozy

I worked at a LFS once and we had a customer bring in a 4 ft tesslata eel in a five gallon bucket. I don't think there was two gallons of water in there with him. It's a shame these creatures are often forced to live in tanks that are far too small for them.

A public aquarium wouldnt take it? Holy cow

 

[ahayes13]

150 foot long moray eel where is joc cousteau when we need him! I have never heard of one that long heck even 15' wish I had a home for this guy

 

[AlexStinson]

Im assuming he was meaning the depth at which they live? No way they get that long

 

[Sooner Reefer]

Wow, I'm pretty sure that's a Green Moray, bet that's a little over half it's full size. (I believe their max is 6ft...but it's been a long time since I've read any articles or even cared about bigger fish like those in this case a monster lol)

meant they are found at depths of up to 150' off the coast. Unbelievable to me that I had to clarify this. Good luck with finding a home for it.

Are they green morays? Exact same species? If it could even survive in a different environment, you wouldn't want to be introducing a non-native species of course.
