巨型海鳝伸展在安达曼海的珊瑚礁墙上

moray eel (Gymnothorax javanicus) stretches along a coral reef wall, its mottled brown pattern blending with the surrounding rock and rubble. Unlike most reef fish, morays have no scales, relying on a protective mucus layer over the skin, which also disguises their pattern against the reef. The species can grow to nearly three metres, one of the largest eels on Indo-Pacific reefs, with a muscular body that wedges into narrow crevices. 4K, horizontal wide shot, scuba diver POV.
