I've had one for over 15 years. As far as I know they aren't sexually dimorphic. The only way you could determine the gender is by a necropsy, from everything I've been told. It really doesn't matter anyway, since they aren't likely to breed in a home aquarium. Just give it a name that can go with either gender!

from what i have read they are unable to breed in captivity anyway, and i was told by my lfs that if you have two males of the same breed in your tank that they will fight! a friend of mine had two peppered morays and my old girdled moray in his tank, after about 3 weeks the larger peppered killed the other peppered moray, then killed the girdled moray too
