CommentsThese fish are common across Oahu. They can be seen on virtually every dive, often in large schools of several hundred.The webpage for this fish said last observation was 2015. This is inaccurate. They are extremely common and can be witnessed any day with confidence of locating many individuals (at least on Oahu).
