FBname: Reticulate hookjaw moray
Comments: Lives in rocky, boulder strewn areas and walls.  Lurks in holes, crevices and dark recesses.  Constantly opens and closes it mouth, an action required for respiration, not a threat  (Ref. 5227).  Despite its large size, this fish is not consumed as food (Ref. 28023).
