So I had recently gotten an eel and it looked really similar to the turkey moray so I thought it was gymnothorax meleagris until I looked closer and found that he had a yellow head so I got a bit confused "the usual pictures of a turkey moray is mostly just black skin with white spots so why is he a yellow head?" I did think that maybe there's just various colours in a single species but I just couldn't find the colour of a turkey moray having a yellow or orange head, the only information I have gotten on a stout moray is that they grow to about 2 feet and that they eat reef fish but I wanted to know the tank size and tank mates it could be kept in and if inverts are safe i do know that he's aggressive so I don't know if I could keep another eel with him he's about 18 to 24 inches and his metabolism is also unusually more "faster" like he digests food so fast literally faster than my honeycomb moray and even my honeycomb moray is kept at the same temperature as him around 28degrees
It made more sense on why he couldn't get along with my tessalata eel he was just too small and would get torn to shreds thankfully he's in his own 40 gallon tank
