Gymnothorax tile
 
Yes, to confirm the above, it is G. Tile.

Brackish, higher end of salinity rather than lower. Don't do fantastically in captivity, but the one I kept was very personable.
 
I had two for a long time that were great in captivity but only when the salinity was not far off ful marine, they were abuot 18-20 inches each and eat ike a horse on lancefish, prawn and mussel

interesting fish to keep and they're bites hurt!!!
