Radion and red carpet

Some people believe that it is not waste, but dead zooxanthellae (which I guess could be considered waste, but it's not poop in the traditional sense). The zoox typically dies in transport because the nem isn't exposed to light. While we don't know for sure, I think people believe it's dead zoox because the nems aren't fed prior to transport, so there shouldn't be much, if any, solid waste. Furthermore, typical nem waste is stringy, not in pellet form as we see with newly acclimating nems.

My hypothesis is that this dead zoox begins to decay within the nem. It can sense the osmotic pressure within the transport bag which is why is doesn't purge while in the bag. Once it's in the QT or DT, it deflates in hopes of removing the dead zoox. As the same time, a bacterial infection begins to set in -- Cipro is used to combat this infection which allows the nem to purge the dead zoox.

I just thought of something, and it's absolutely probably really stupid, but wonder if during transport there is anything we can do, even if it just is providing a SMALL amount of light that doesn't need battery or doesn't generate heat... I immediately thought of a glow stick or something like that..

Dunno, just a random though I wanted to capture before I forgot.

Wow! That is off topic.

FWIW - I just did a search on the words "Radion" and "Fan" in the thread title, and got 17 hits. Search is your friend.

6 Juvens B/W
4 Fiji Sun Kist Skunk.

The Juvens of B/W have no interests hosting the carpets.... the skunks actually getting close to the carpets everyday, hopefully they will take one in long term.

Divers Den sold a beautiful gig last week, as I recall. Why the preference for a hardline vs. gig?

Sorry if that's a dumb question. Just looking to learn. Thanks.

Thanks. And sorry about the unclear post. My tablet's spell check apparently got the best of me. But clearly you understood what I had been TRYING to say anyway! Thanks. :)
