Spotted Garden Eel

Heteroconger hassi

Description:

Creating swaying gardens in the uninterrupted sandflats of Indonesia, what you may mistake for straps of algae are actually burrowing eels, as you swim over the top they will instantly retreat to their burrows leaving no indication of their existence apart from the occasional empty hole
