Two octopus, including one large one free-swimming in the open. Two tiny (and awesome looking) leaf scorpionfish. Huge Hawaii turtle. Dozens of moray eels (some crevices had 2-3 eels a piece!). Hundreds of cornetfish whipping about in the mild current. Wreck of a Cessna airplane sits in the middle of a 150ft/45m wide canyon surrounded by schooling grunts and surgeonfish. Excellent Nitrox profile.
