The second moray is definatly a snowflake moray (Echidna nebulosa). They are pretty common in the marine fish trade. I'll do a little research about the other.
 
well, very great thank you to you sir toolbox31.Until now the moray #2 and 3 still live in my brackish tank setup...can't wait the next info...
 
i would definatly get the snowflake into full SW asap.
I've never even heard of them being in brackish.
 
To be honest, none of those species look like they are the species that can tolerate brackish conditions. Get them to marine water as soon as possible, but make sure that you acclimatize them slowly.
