$Laced (or Honeycomb) Moray Gymnothorax favagineus is widespread in Indo-Pacific, often in holes with cleaner wrasses or shrimps. Males grow up to 3 m, so far one of the two largest of Indo-Pacific morays. The blotches are variable between individuals and size, often in relation to habitat - those in clear coral reefs usually have proportionally less black than those found in turbid waters.\nLaced Moray feeds on cephalopods and small fishes. There are reports of ciguatera, a foodborn illness, caused by bioaccumulation, a very heat-resistant toxicity who cannot be detoxified by conventional cooking. \nBatu Kapal, Banda Sea, Indonesia, 4°30'42.42 S 129°53'20.484 E at 15m depth$

Dragon or Leopard Moray Eel Enchelycore pardalis occurs in the tropial Indo-Pacific from Reunion to the Hawaiian, Line and Society islands, north to southern Japan and southern Korea, south to New Caledonia in a depth range from 5 to 60m, max. length 92cm. The species is very rarely observed in the Society Islands archipelago, but more frequently at the foot of the Marquesan cliffs. It is a critical species confined to rocky coastal areas. The posterior nostrils are enlarged and often mistaken for horns. When disturbed, Dragon Moray quickly adopts a threatening posture with its dorsal fin raised and jaws wide open. The species is generally encountered solitary, occasionally in pairs. Today, this moray eel is still used in traditional Marquesan medicine (after cooking), particularly in the treatment of certain skin conditions.
