Fish/Inverts You Wish Were Available in the Hobby?

[ISpeakForTheSeas]

Straightforward question here: is there a fish or invert you want to own/see in the hobby but can’t find or get (either because it’s rare, because it’s not available in your country, or because it’s just not sold at all)?

Think of it like a fish or invert you would custom order if the price was right.

What is (are) your unavailable fish/invert(s)?

At the moment, mine would be Synalpheus regalis, the “Eusocial Pistol Shrimp” and any of its associated sponges.

Hawaiian cleaner wrasse is my first thought they're beautiful.

golden dwarf moray eel. When I started the hobby about 15 years ago I really wanted one. And the prices were somewhat reasonable ~$150, but I had to leave the hobby to move across the country. Now that I've started again due to a number of reasons (death of a diver who used to capture them and Hawaii ban) they are next to impossible to find and when they are very expensive.

Didn’t realised that they used to be really affordable wend I started the hobby

Colored carpet anemones and true Percula clowns mated pairs. I know they are available online just not in the local shops.

Hogchokers and sea robins don't seem to be available in Canada despite populations in waters around Nova Scotia.
