giant moray
This is a giant moray "Gymnothorax javanicus". Its size can exceed 3 meters (10 feet).
Morays are primarily night stalkers that ambush a variety of small fish and crustaceans. They frequently swim free from the reef to look for dinner in the late afternoon and at night. By day, most species remain hidden with only their heads protruding from crevices, although it is not that unusual to see one swimming free from one crevice to another.
To the uninitiated diver, the first sighting of a swaying serpent-head, continually opening and closing teeth-filled jaws, may be frightening. But the menacing mouth continually opens and closes to draw in water necessary for respiration, not to threaten.
However, one must be cautious whith morays as their bites are painful, subject to go septic and might even be able to sever a finger.
