I know moray eel's eyesight goes as they get older and it makes them hide more and be less gregarious. So the behavioral change might really just be age. We had an old moray at the NAIB when i was there that we used to hand feed whole mackerel....I was not a fan of sticking my arm in his tank waving the fish around until he decided to strike hopefully biting the fish and not your hand...
Have no idea about that. But he's character also changed alot as well. Maybe it is the getting old thing!
Nice pics, and some good tips too! Any idea why his looks changed? Perhaps he/she is just getting old.

We have a 90g mixed reef tank and all 4 types of corals are kept in it. A yellow tang, a blue tang, a hippo tang, a powder blue tang, a maroon clown, a coulpe of chromis, a lawn mower blennie, a madarin goby, and a blue ribbon eel who's five years old.
hey Kaia, i also look forward to a tank introduction
