Green Moray Eel

A Fish Green Moray Eel (Gymnothorax funebris) is an aggressive species that is not reef-safe, admired for its vivid green coloration, massive size, serpentine body, and striking predatory behavior.

Males typically display robust musculature and strong jaws, while females/juveniles tend to have slightly more slender builds but share the same color and features. They reach about 72 inches (6 feet) in adulthood and should be housed in aquariums of at least 300 gallons.

Provide ample live rock, large hiding spots/caves, and secure spaces, along with stable water parameters (salinity ~1.020–1.025, temp ~72–79°F, pH ~8.1–8.4), and a tightly sealed lid since this species is capable of escaping tanks.

Diet should consist of meaty foods such as squid, fish, shrimp, and other marine flesh (offered fresh or frozen), and with proper care this eel makes a dramatic and commanding showpiece in large predator aquariums.

International Aquatics Quarantine & Guarantee: All fish are checked by marine vets, given a formalin bath, and held for 14 days in copper-treated systems. We feed Selcon-soaked food with Kanaplex and Metroplex during quarantine. Unless marked, all livestock comes with our 15-Day Guarantee. You will receive a video of your fish eating before shipment. On request, we also send photos/videos after arrival at IA. Some species are import-to-order (3-10 business days). Many common species are already cleared or near the end of QT.

Several species will be import-to-order and may take anywhere from 3-10 business days to secure. Once your fish is secured, you will be notified, and the quarantine process will then begin.
