Fish of the Day 3 - I got that eel in me PART 2

Okay, I was bored so we're doing another one of these!

Moray eels are a very popular kind of eel, and they are known for their size and expressiveness!

Moray eel - Wikipedia

Moray eel facts:

- Similarly to ribbon eels, these guys are also mouth breathers! Thats why they always look like they're saying "wow!!"

-Many kinds of moray eels are covered in a slimy mucus...

-They are apex predators!

-They have a symbiotic relationship with cleaner shrimp; the eel stays clean and the shrimp gets to eat... whatever muck is on the eel. Idk whether to say aww or eww!

-Most moray eels have two sets of jaws! The second one is hidden in their throat o-O


I love these little guys!!!
