The Black Edge Moray Eel is a unique and seldom-seen species in the aquarium industry. These eels, native to the Caribbean, make a fascinating addition to any tank.

The Black Edge Moray Eel can reach lengths of over 24 inches and requires a minimum tank size of 125 gallons. It's crucial to have a tightly sealed aquarium lid, as these eels are known escape artists and will exploit any small opening.

With a brownish-gold hue, white spots, and a distinctive black stripe along its back, the Black Edge Moray Eel is visually striking. However, they are aggressive and possess sharp teeth, so caution is advised when handling or maintaining the tank. Immediate medical attention is necessary if bitten.

These eels will consume any fish or invertebrate that fits in their mouth. Due to poor eyesight, they might mistake your hand or other tank inhabitants for food, so exercise caution when introducing a Black Edge Moray Eel to your aquarium.

Their diet should consist of meaty foods, with fresh seafood cut into manageable pieces being ideal. Avoid frozen seafood due to potential harmful chemicals. Feeding with tongs a few times a week is recommended.
