I think they used to have horseshoe crabs in the mangrove exhibit, which now exclusively display milkfish.

How about nudibranch? They were added to commemorate easter last year, didn't last long thought.

Humpback grouper, they were added to commemorate the Year of the Rat in 2020, didn't last long too.
