Zebra moray eel
Things to like about the zebra moray eel include that they’re probably the easiest eel to identify. They also tend to be quite long and make visually interesting shapes as they meander through rock and coral.

I can see why it is called ‘zebra’ and indeed it is surprisingly long!

I haven’t seen as many this year as previously. Don’t know whether that’s some significant change or just I’ve missed seeing them. It’s a fine line.

Yes, these days any such absences can fill one with a sense of anxiety and foreboding.

I’ve definitely seen a degradation of the reef in the seven years I’ve lived here. There are a few places I won’t go to anymore because it’s too depressing to see the state they’re in.
