I just saw Freshwater Morays fr sale at my LFS, and I want one, but IDK ANYTHING about them and the extent of my SW-Moray knowledge is limited to readings, wildlife shows and encounters while snorkeling or fishing :(

lol I don't even know if they are egg-layers or live-bearers....Europeans and Americans and similar species lay eggs I think, but IDK if Morays are even classed as "True Eels".

As you can see this is INCREDIBLY helpful: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gymnothorax_polyuranodon

Hey, at least we know they are Austral-Asian. lol
 
I think in some aquariums, morays have laid eggs and even hatched wigglers, but they die after a few days. So no, no breeding in captivity. I have no idea about the sexing.

I found this after K krichardson told me there was already a thread.....and the search pulled up like 30 threads alone for Gymnothorax LOL but I assume this is the right one since it has a big post from Oddball Oddball , our Admin.
