Rhinomuraena
amboinensis (Blue ribbon eel)
Rhinomuraena
species, the ribbon moray eels. Ninety nine percent plus do
not live a month in captivity. Most starve, refusing all
food. Next most common category of loss is escape through the
smallest of top openings, or plumbing. Last is "simple
stress".
The
written record shows some people's success with netting food
and eel together and shaking, training on select live skewered
items; but most black to blue to all yellow female ribbon
morays perish within a short while. You've been cautioned.
Maximum
length approximately 75 cm.
