So with the Hawaii ban now in place, I thought it would be a cool (and sad) idea to go over what kind of fish we won't be seeing for now. Things that come to my mind are different triggers, zebrasoma tangs, and the dwarf golden moray (I'll miss these guys :( )
I think some groupers as well, what other fish will we not see for now?

Oh man, that's a lot more than I thought. Especially the Potters Leopard, I'll miss seeing these guys until I can go to Hawaii ☹

Chevron Tang also. Most are available from other locations, though numbers will invariably be well down and prices correspondingly well up.
