Ribbon eel

Swim, Snorkel, Dive, See, Meet, Watch the Ribbon eel

The Ribbon Moray eel is a star among underwater photographers. Firstly, because it has three different liveries - juvenile, male and female - in its lifetime. Juveniles have a black livery with a yellow dorsal fin. Adults have an electric blue livery with a bright yellow dorsal fin, eyes and snout. Second, because they have a beautiful characteristic head with nasal appendages on the upper and lower jaws. The Ribbon Moray eel wanders from one hole to another. It is more discreet during the day, with just the head sticking out of the hole. They are found in the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
