It grows to a maximum length of 1 m., and has a life span of 15 to 20 years. It feeds mainly on crustaceans. The Snowflake Moray Eel is a large fish with no pectoral or pelvic fins, but has an extraordinary strong body that it uses to swim through the water like a snake does on land. The fish has a big mouth. (Taken from the aquarium's adjacent signage)

Amazing coloration - out of the ordinary - as one generally thinks of - even for the large variety of colorful tropical species (I say).
