While we're on the subject of moray eels, has anyone seen any white cheek moray eels for sale lately? I used to keep them, but it's been 20+ years since I've seen any in the aquarium hobby. They have a small white spots on each side of the jaw, where the top jaw meets the bottom. Right in the corner where the jaws come together. They are a very pretty dark Olive Drab/and kind of Dark Brown color. The ones I kept were around 10-15" long and about twice the size of a pencil or a bit smaller. Just curious. Thanks.

I have three of those freshwater/brackish water White-Cheeked morays (Echidna Rhodochilus), housed in a 1.008 sg aquarium with a Gymnothorax Polyuranodon and a small brackish moray (unidentified yet). I live in Indonesia in a coastal city, and it's not so difficult to find them.
