A Dive into the Atlantic Ocean.

This closeup video shot features a black Mediterranean moray eel hiding inside its burrow among the rocky seabed near Tenerife. The eel's dark, smooth skin contrasts sharply with its surroundings. Its head peeks out from the crevice, and its eyes are wide open, alert to any movement. Small patches of algae and marine vegetation cover the rocks, providing a natural camouflage for the moray. Nearby, a small black fish swims past, adding to the dynamic nature of the footage. This clip provides an intimate look at the moray's behavior and habitat in the Atlantic waters near Tenerife.

The Mediterranean moray eel (Muraena helena) is a fascinating species found predominantly in the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic Ocean. These eels prefer rocky crevices and coral reefs, where they can hide during the day and hunt at night. They are typically found at depths ranging from 10 to 80 meters. Characterized by their elongated bodies and sharp teeth, Mediterranean morays are adept hunters, feeding on fish, cephalopods, and crustaceans. Their unique appearance and nocturnal behavior make them an intriguing subject for marine biologists and enthusiasts.
