LFS labeled it as "moray eel " the clerk Said it needs to be freshwater for life. I don't trust his fish knowledge , could you guys tell me what you think this really is ?

Thanks I keep several spiney eels and would love to add another cave dweller to my tank

Gymnothorax tile, not a freshwater but brackish species...I believe the older they are the more brackish the water needs to be.
 
The rest are correct on the ID. when kept in full saltwater,this species is very outgoing and robust.
