Trophic Strategy
provided by Fishbase
Inhabits coral reefs (Ref. 58534). Occurs in sandy areas and seagrass beds of both lagoon and seaward reefs. Uses its stiff pointed tail to rapidly burrow backwards into the sand when frightened (Ref. 37816). Benthic (Ref. 58302). Feeds on sand-dwelling fishes and crabs and prawns. Sometimes fully exposed when searching for prey (Ref. 30874). Rises to the surface to spawn (Ref. 37816).

Saddled snake-eel
provided by wikipedia EN
The saddled snake-eel (Leiuranus semicinctus, also known commonly as the halfbanded snake-eel, the banded snake eel, or the culverin[2]) is an eel in the family Ophichthidae (worm/snake eels).[3] It was described by George Tradescant Lay and Edward Turner Bennett in 1839, originally under the genus Ophisurus.[4] It is a marine, tropical eel which is known from the Indo-Pacific and southeastern Atlantic Ocean, including East and South Africa, the Hawaiian Islands, the Marquesan Islands, the Mangaréva islands, Japan, and Australia. It dwells at a depth range of 0 to 70 metres (0 to 230 ft), most often around 0 to 10 metres (0 to 33 ft), and inhabits lagoons and reefs, in which it forms burrows in beds of seagrass and sandy areas. Males can reach a maximum total length of 66 centimetres (2.17 ft).[3]
The saddled snake-eel's diet consists of fish, crabs, prawns,[3] and worms including Ptychodera.[5] Males and females rise to the surface of the water during spawning.[6]
