I found a few moray eels described as 'Amaazonian Freshwater Moray Eels' in a local fish store... there was no-one around to ask about them and there was no other info... although I was tempted to buy one, I thought it best to do a bit of research first.
I can only find info on Gymnothorax polyuranodon, which is a brackish water species from indonesia (ish..). The only reference to an Amazonian species is on http://members.tripod.com/~stingray_21/index.html, and quite frankly looking at everything else on this site I'm not inclined to trust it much!
Does anyone know if there is a true freshwater moray from the Amazon? If so, what is the latin name and description and what are it's requirements?
My set up is a 100gal tank with plec, 3 tinfoils, senegal bichir, silver dat, syno brichiardi, clown acara and a leporinus.
Any info much appreciated
