WHO'S WATCHING WHOM?


DENNIS ODA / DODA@STARBULLETIN.COM
Shelby Tateishi, 5, was looking at the Waikiki Aquarium's
new display of fish from the reef drop-off area yesterday,
with a poster of a giant squirrelfish inspecting her hairdo
behind her. This is the area where knee-deep coral
shallows plunge into blue water hundreds of feet deep.
Displayed are four new species of fish never before seen.
Shelby's mom, Cheryl Tateishi, said she tries to go to the
Waikiki Aquarium at least once a month.

This fish was caught at a depth of 250 feet and has yet to be named.
