synbranchidae
Swamp eels are slippery and fun to watch as they wiggle through the water! They can breathe air and often come to the surface for a quick breath!
生息地: Swampy areas, marshes, and slow-moving waters.
The Swamp Eel has a long, snake-like body, usually olive-green or brownish-grey, sometimes with subtle speckles. It lacks pectoral and pelvic fins, making its smooth, cylindrical form distinct from most other fish. Its small, pointed head blends seamlessly into its body.
