Have you researched it??? I have and have seen that it is a major problem. You would be suprised at what research can do.

:lol:...the link man.
I feed my anemones frozen shrimp ( I of course thaw them out first). I think they are called Tiger Shrimp? They are pretty high quality and nutritious. My anemones love them. As for the fish, I feed them pieces of fillets of fresh snapper or something like that. As long as it smells fresh and looks clean I feed it to my anemones.
***Did you do any research before concluding that pollution is what causes these problems?***
Not specifically but I have in general and it is starting to become a major problem in our oceans. Its quite sad how we are literally killing the wonders of Earth.
Whats common sense? Are you saying that pollution is NOT a probable possibilty?

55semireef,
Why do you think that your shrimp or snapper filets not contaminated with radioactivity or polution, while silverside, also come from the same ocean contaminated? People don't go to contaminated area to collect fish for pets.
The different here is that one processed for human where freshness is important, thus it is keep frozen all the time. The other is processed for pets. Quality control in freshness is not as important. We get spoiled silverside and other product sometime. This is the problem, not radioactivity or polution. If the polution is enough to kill the anemone with one piece of food, it would have kill the silverside, and the silverside would not have been harvested in the first place.
This is what I mean by commonsense. Sometime, I don't think you have any.

Your logic is to shallow. Pollutants do not necessarily have to kill the silverside as you claim they would. It can be passed on from on food chain to the other. Ever heard of primary producers? Its where it all starts. It can get into the food chain starting with primary producers, (phytoplankton) then to primary consumers, to secondary consumers then to tertiary consumers. Everytime you go up the food chain, the pollutant is magnified, called biological maginification. It may not kill the animal itself but can severely have a detrimental effect on the species or poisen it. A silverside could have got a pollutant by feeding off zooplankton or something and could have been harvested soon after it ate the zooplankton. Now the silverside has the chemicle or polluntant. That same silverside is packaged and is to be frozen. That package is purchased by someone that has a Gigantea (as we all know a VERY DELICATE anemone) and the anemone is fed the poisened silverside. The Gigantea in effect is poisened and is near the brink of death. This is what I mean by general research. It might help you one day with your logic OrionN:thumbsup:
