    Nicole Olmsted, conservation manager for Commander, Navy Region Hawaii (CNRH) is featured in support of the Navy's large scale removal of invasive octocorals in Pearl Harbor during the fall of 2024 at the kickoff for the week-long "Don't Let it Loose" campaign at the Waikiki aquarium, which begins Oct. 28, 2024. The Waikiki Aquarium tank near Olmsted holds invasive species that have taken over areas of Pearl Harbor including the Pulse coral (Unomia stolonifera), the Kenya tree coral (Capnella spicata), the hammer coral, the green Majano anemone, and the Rhodactis mushroom coral, a green corallimorph. This tank exhibit is part of the week-long campaign, which the Navy is supporting, and also includes talks and webinars about invasive species. (U.S. Navy photo by Kyler Hood)
