Most species of the black finned snake ell or Ophichthus altipennis spend their time buried in sand and hunt small fishes and crustaceans by sense of smell. Reproductively, most members of this family are nonguarders. The main mode of swimming of adult fish in this family is anguilliform.

The leaf-nosed moray ell or Rhinomuraena quaesita is more active at night and hides in holes and crevices during the day. Vicious reputation is undeserved, although some species will bite if provoked. Reproductively, most members of this family are nonguarders. The main mode of swimming of adult fish in this family is anguilliform .

The Banded coral shrimp or Stenopus hispidus reaches a total length of 60 millimetres and has striking colouration. Stenopus hispidus lives below the intertidal zone, at depth of up to 210 metres on coral reefs. It is a cleaner shrimp, and advertises to passing fish by slowly waving its long, white antennae. S. hispidus uses its three pairs of claws to remove parasites, fungi and damaged tissue from the fish.
