Buy corals in other states/countries and bring it home?

[Kara]

My fiance and I are thinking about Plau or Hawaii or Australia for our honeymoon. SCUBA diving is our primary concern then land type things to do.. I thought if we went to these gorgeous places and I picked up a few corals at the LFSs there, could we bring them home?

i dont think it would be impossible but call the US customs department to be sure. I know animals brought into hawaii have to q-tined for 30 days but not sure obout taking them FROM hawaii.

I think the Customs issue might be little bit of a problem as stated above.
