Thanks everyone for the replies. Its just that the head looked too narrow and the jaw looks too long. Maybe its just a young one that hasnt fully developed.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

wow ... tough one
i don't think it's a moray (the snout is too long and sharp)
it looks more like a spotted moray, but the spots aren't as dense
maybe a juvenile spotted moray?
but then it's got those "barbels" on the nostrils ....

H2Andy:
I'm a tad confused, do you think it is or do you think it isn't a moray?
H2Andy:
Those are normal on morays. This particular moray is an uncommon color variation of Spotted Moray.

I don't think its a green moray. I think its a spotted moray. the color, spot density, and barbels are nagging.
