Not to say there isn't any but they are not as common of a tang in Hawaii as people thing because they see them included on Hawaiian shipments.

I went to Oahu in June and saw yellows everywhere. They were swarming around the docks and marinas so I actually saw them more from land than when I was snorkelling.

BTW, great pics Matt. I know from experience how difficult it is to get a good shot with all the goggles and adrenaline getting in the way.
