![]() If the fish was caught with cyonide its chances of living a long life have been cut short. If the clouded eyes have been there for some time they will probably stay clouded. Are you sure it is a cyonide problem?

![]() In order to stop cyanide captures we should all refuse to buy them when possible, they usually die shortly after puchase anyway.

![]() cloudy eyes can be the result of stress not neccessarily cyanide
cyanide will destroy the fishes' intestines ability to absorb nutrition. although they are eating but starving to death please avoid any LFS that carry cyanide caught fish and let the owner why you are not buying from that shipment net caught or air curtain caught are more expensive hawaii, indo, caribean, red sea suppliers have promised and demonstrated that they will not sell cyanide caught fish thank you, i will step off the soap box now Tak |

![]() Theres no real way to tell unless you do some crazy tests. I think most reputable dealers try there best to make sure they are not cyanide caught, and price doesnt always reflect method of catching, but just the method of mark up

No store ever intends to carry cyanide caught fish. Every store claims "not me", so then where do all the cyanide caught fish go? "stir,stir"

this perception may or may not has any truth but as long as the suppliers do not make an effort to disprove the "perception", i will not buy fish if the shipment is from that region ![]() Quote:
