RIBBON EEL<br />
LEMBEH STRAIT,<br />
INDONESIA<br />
BY EDUARDO ACEVEDO<br />
The ribbon eel’s normal habitat<br />
is the coastal reef and reef crest<br />
in clear water between 10 and<br />
200 feet. They usually remain<br />
hidden in their small holes or<br />
caves and timidly poke out their<br />
heads. Individuals are either<br />
blue and yellow or black and<br />
yellow, and they often transition<br />
between these as they age and/or<br />
change sex. It’s unusual to find<br />
these eels swimming free, which<br />
is what most excited me about<br />
