The Zebra Eel is a species that demands expert care, making it a rewarding challenge for experienced aquarium hobbyists. This species hails from the Western Indian Ocean, where it displays fascinating natural behaviours that can be replicated in a captive environment.As a carnivorous species, the Zebra Eel thrives on a diet primarily composed of meaty foods. To maintain this species in optimal health and vibrancy, we recommend feeding it with Gamma Foods' range of superior, nutritionally balanced products.

It tends to be solitary, making it a suitable choice for a community tank with other non-aggressive species. However, due to its size and dietary requirements, it is best accommodated in a larger tank setup.In conclusion, the Gymnomuraena zebra is a mesmerizing species that offers a unique combination of beauty, intrigue, and challenge.
