Chromis agilis Smith 1960, the Reef Chromis. Widespread in the
Indo-west Pacific, including Hawaiian Islands where this species is most
frequently gathered for the aquarium trade. To three inches in length. A
good species for reef tanks. Hawai'i image of a juvenile. Kona 2017

Stegastes fasciolatus (Ogilby 1889), the
Pacific Gregory. Indo-west Pacific. Not a great beauty and at up to
six inches in length, a handful. But an interesting, intelligent
addition to a rougher aquarium setting. An older individual in Hawai'i. Kona

Acanthurus. achilles Shaw 1803, Achilles
tang. Widely distributed from Hawaii westward through Micronesia
and Melanesia, an area called Oceania (also reported from Mexico's Baja
tip). Though the best specimens do hail from U.S.s 50th State,
success with this species can only be had by securing a healthy
specimen, providing a large well-established living space, with high,
consistent specific gravity and oxygen concentration. Kona 2017 |

Scorpaenopsis cacopsis Jenkins 1901, Titan
Scorpionfish. Long third dorsal spine. Hawaiian island endemic. Due
to its high regard as a food fish, its populations have been
decimated by spearfishers. To twenty inches long. Big Island pic 2017. |
