Wayne,
If you put your efforts, whatever they may be, into developing a useful juice test, and actually developed it, you would be my hero.
Than your hero will be the US Coral Reef Task Force because one of the things they deciided in their May meeting is that they will be certifying or approving a Cyanide Detection Test.
Once certiifed the CDT will be used tho prosecute those Americans who continue to deal in fish that they know or ought to have know were caught with cyanide.
Pretty good incentive to switch to a net caught supplier, eh!

Wayne,
I closed my store almost three years ago, so I'm in the clear. But in the time I had the store, I dealt mainly with local wholesalers. During that time I tried to avoid Phillipine fish, but it was not reasonably possible to query the location of collection for every fish I ordered. Yes, I had livestock loss and yes, sometimes it seemed like they may have been juiced (refused live foods such as live prey items or macroalgae, depending on the particular feeding habit of the fish, hardened abdomen post mortem, etc.).
So you're saying that I should have been charged with a crime if a CDT had been available and used randomly in my shop, even though I had no complicity in the use of cyanide and lost money on that fish as well?
Just curious,
Stan
