Zoo's toxicity
Yea some are more toxic than others, but for most
people, simply handling them is not going to cause a problem. But yea, you don't want to make Glade Plug-Ins out of them :-) Wayne Sallee Wayne's Pets Wayne@WaynesPets.com |

Zoo's toxicity (reef heart fish back)
I'm sure everytime I clean my tank (BTW, it's acrylic so it is a PAIN) and
the zoo's start closing up, some toxin might be release into the water, which later is evaporated by my metal halides. My concern is, Am I or are you breathing harmful fumes? Does the skimmer clean the water from the toxin? If they are so lethal, why is my fish still swimming? Anyways, he's replaceable, I'm not. I'm surprise I was never told about this at the LFS, even McDonald's warn you about hot coffee. What about long term exposure? Aren't you worry one day you get a heart/pulmonary failure, and even then most DR's will rule out your reef tank? I'm not getting dramatic, just wanted you see from a different angle. Once I found out about this, my zoo's have started to multiply like crazy. Even the one that were somehow dying are coming back. They know I know.....=) Ruben |

Zoo's toxicity (reef fish)
If your LFS told everyone everything that could go
wrong with your tank, they would not have time to sell anything to anybody. That's what books are for. I would not worry about any buildup effects. As for the fish still swimming around, you could try this: take some zoos and stick them in the blender, then dump them in your reef tank. I bet your fish would not be swimming around very long then :-) Even a lot of corals and gorgonias have a strong somewhat toxic smell to them. Wayne Sallee Wayne's Pets Wayne@WaynesPets.com |

Zoo's toxicity (reef heart fish back species)
Go buy a clue ruben. you breathe in more farts whch will be harmfull
than fuciing water vapor from a fucking zoo.Your a real fucking idiot Ruben. Then again you patronize this fucking loser group with a clueless leader named Wayne. Go join a web based forum like Reef central or Creative Reefing, where folks in the know hang out in stead of some out of date place like thhis on USENET. ONly foks on usenet that stay are those that can not handle web based forums as they do not know half of what they thnk they do so they are readily found out to be clueless and dumbasses. Rec.ponds Moderated is a prime example of that as is this group. These groups re frun by wanna be leaders but they do not have clue and they seemto talk a good game to the idiots looking for answers. They can not cutb it in a web based forum where they wold not know a fucking thing. Gill, Wayne and Kurt and most others in this reef group are fucking idiots! <<>>I'm sure everytime I clean my tank (BTW, it's acrylic so it is a PAIN) and <<>>the zoo's start closing up, some toxin might be release into the water, <<>>which later is evaporated by my metal halides. <<>> <<>>My concern is, Am I or are you breathing harmful fumes?

Zoo's toxicity (simple)
I understand what you are saying.
But a simple :"That's toxic and might or might not kill you" would be appropiate. McDonald's does after a lawsuit about their "HOT" coffee. I'm not saying I'd rather been coffee burned than killed, I just wants a little short warning so I could decide to take the risk. That's all. Disclosure. Ruben |

Zoo's toxicity (fish)
I doubt that McDonald's employees say that.
Having it preprinted on a container is different. And since fish bags are for all things, that method would not work. Wayne Sallee Wayne's Pets Wayne@WaynesPets.com |

Zoo's toxicity (sting)
The only coral I was warned against was my Hammer coral and was told to
make sure I get it to retract before moving it as it could deliver a nasty sting. Although not true of all corals, I treat them all as if they could possibly be toxic or at least capable of giving a nasty sting.....but really it is just a matter of common sense and research. I certainly would not handle any corals if I had a cut on my hand, or even put my hand in the tank. I've never seen any warnings on anenomes or sea urchins either but they could be equally painful IIRC the stings are also toxic. Gill PS Unless iced isn't it normal to expect coffee to be hot? :-) |
