Ive aquired one of these rare morays and info on the net is a bit limited, does anyone out there know anything about them?

After seeing your original post about discovering this hitchiker in your tank I did a little searching myself. I know zip about them myself, but happened upon what appears to be the initial manuscript by Mr. Lavenberg who first described the species. Mostly scientific data, but that's probably the best you'll get on such a rare & recently discovered critter.
