🐠 Daily Fish Fact: 🐠
The Snowflake Moray Eel, along with other species of morays, have pharyngeal jaws, which are a second set of jaws located in the throat or pharynx. This species is an unconfirmed hermaphrodite, but there have been records that they are able to change sex during their lifetime. Snowflake morays are also scale-less, secreting a mucus over their skin that allows for easy maneuverability in and around holes in their environment.

New refsheet I got!
Came out even better than I had envisioned. Don't be fooled though he's a real sweetheart whenever he's not doing his 7-3 (nor his 4-12).
Just watch out if you're behind him while on the docks...
Commission by @nodriot (as per usual). You ought to check them out.

i was a 90s girl, i grew up wanting to be ariel, sure. but i was the weird kid who wanted flotsam and jetsam to be my undersea friends, not flounder and sebastian. to this day, i love moray eels - aquarist goal is to one day have my own, gotta work my way up to that though - and i told myself i could forgive the new movie its flaws if they did my bois good.
i’ve just been informed that they were pretty much written out of the new mermaid movie so into the trash it goes, irredeemable.
btw if you are a weirdo moray mom like me watch turtles tale 2, it has moray eel henchman (basically flotsam/jetsam clones lets be honest) who become good guys at the end and also they have french accents and one of them is played by the guy who played whisper in the english yokai watch dub and none of your money will go to disney if you watch it because it aint one of theirs. ;-)

EEL
These two particular eels hold a special place in my heart! I was on each of their care teams for some time, and I adored them immensely.
The one on the left is ✨Poncho✨ the palenose moray!
The right is ❄️Vito Corleone❄️, a snowflake moray!

feesh lads inspired by @naffeclipse's fic!
Bruuuuh this took sooooo loooong. Mostly because I would put it down every time I got stuck on the design or colors haha.
Also, can I just say Naff I really respect how you leave so much up to the reader in terms of design aspects! (though if you happened to let more details of how you see them slip I would not complain. :eyes:)
I'm not sure if I'm completely happy with them... I might have other ideas later. Sun has some lionfish/betta inspiration, Moon was inspired by the snowflake moray eel, angler fish, and lancetfish. I wasn't sure if the pattern for the 'stars' was too structured, but it was reminiscent of deep-sea bioluminescence so I thought it fit.
