The Marble eel is the South Pacific terror. It is also known an the 'Tamtam' in the South Pacific islands. This specific eel is a little bit rare to catch. With its coloring, it in very confusing with sand because it has light yellow and white spots on the back of its head and back.
This is a 3 fool marble eel but they can grow up to 8 feet long. This eel has murdered about 100 people. It specially attacks the face of its victims, leaving a red mark which is a bite mark. But the natives had blamed an octopus, but an octopus in freshwater doesn't makes any sense as it is a salt water inhabitant. This eel feeds on other eels and mosquito fish.
And here are 7 foot large marble eels. When they become big, there colors evolve to brighter colors to attract females.
