If you mean this one ,he's a Macrognathus circumcinctus / Macrognathus siamensis or zigzag / peacock hybrid .

Never ever heard of any spiny eel hybrids, gather these will be man made as usual How do you know the sp they used, or is this just a educated guess? Would like to know more about these hybrids, any information appreciated.

Don't know for sure but have heard in captivity they can hybridize and it has the marking's of both species .

Hi I happen to get one in Malaysia.I think it is called anguilla marmorata >Nice I would love to learn more about its habitate especially yours is in the wild .you think you could email me more picture on its enviorment to my email at michaellim_setia@yahoo.com tks

I'm not technically an Eel keeper, but this one just happens to live in the stream at the bottom of my garden. We feed it chicken and fish scraps and it has become fairly tame over the years.

It's a NZ longfinned Eel, (Anquilla dieffenbachii). They can grow to 2m long a weigh 40kg, so this is just a small one - about 90cm long.

I lured it out with some pieces of fish to take the pictures.

Then it wriggled back to it's cave.

Cheers
