Is Brown Spotted Moray Eel Edible?

Post by mtan8 »

My friend caught this Brown Spotted Moray and asked whether it can be eaten? If "yes", how to cook it? Thanks.

I honestly don't know if this fish is edible or have heard anyone eating this fish. So on the safe side, don't eat it. :)

I think the issue was that fish has already been caught and dead. If it's so, we should not let the fish go to waste. But base on unfamiliarity of the fish and your own safety, we should not risk your own health over it. :)
