A passenger ship has just arrived in San Francisco from Hawaii. Aboard the ship are not only the passengers but also some native Hawaiians: tropical fish, destined for aquariums. Several varieties of the fish are shown and described. They ultimately will go into an environment more hospitable than from where they came as the aquariums will be controlled. The colorful fish are often inspiration for fashion designers who look to what nature provides in terms of color combinations and patterns.
