More about Spotted Snake eel

The Spotted Snake Eel (Myrichthys maculosus) is characterized by its elongated, snake-like body with a distinctive spotted pattern, primarily in shades of brown and white. It is native to the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific region. This eel species features a pointed snout and is not commonly known or widely kept in the aquarium hobby, partly due to its specific habitat requirements and size.
