Conger conger

The conger eel is a fish with a cylindrical, anguilliform body without scales; they can measure 3 m. and weigh 66 kg.

They usually live near the coast between 0 and 1179 m. deep, hidden in caves, they rarely come out during the day, they feed on small fish, mollusks and crustaceans. 

The conger can live up to 15 years, and like other fish of this order it only reproduces once in its life since once it has spawned it dies.

Pots, bottom longlines and trawl nets are used to capture them.

The meat of the conger eel is highly appreciated, apart from its flavor it has a high content of vitamin A, being one of the ones that contains the most, only behind eels and eels.
