Approximately 680 species of fishes are known from
the Hawaiian Islands; about 420 of those species are designated
as reef and inshore fishes. A surprising 24% are endemic to
Hawaii (i.e. found nowhere else in the world)!
Shown below are many of the most common reef fishes
that you are likely to encounter when scuba diving with Akamia

not a fish!!!)
