The **Zebra Moray Eel** is a unique species of moray eel that poses minimal risk to aquarium enthusiasts. Unlike other eels, the **Zebra Moray Eel** has rounded teeth designed for crushing crustaceans rather than piercing flesh. Its elongated brown body is adorned with distinct vertical white stripes, giving it its name.

Reaching up to 60 inches in length, the **Zebra Moray Eel** requires a minimum tank size of 90 gallons. While it can be housed in reef aquariums, caution is advised as it may consume some invertebrates and potentially dislodge rocks and corals.

For optimal comfort, the **Zebra Moray Eel** thrives in tanks with a soft sand substrate and abundant live rock, providing ample hiding spots. Unlike many eels, the **Zebra Moray Eel** often ventures out of its caves, making it a more visible tank inhabitant.

As a carnivore, the **Zebra Moray Eel** requires a diet rich in meaty foods such as fresh squid, clams, scallops, and shrimp. Feeding tongs are recommended to encourage the **Zebra Moray Eel** to accept food.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about whether the **Zebra Moray Eel** is the right addition to your aquarium.
