read the report dont "skim "it....if you feed salted roe or even apples to smolts for 23 days they will also die.

where is the control in this test? same fish different pond different food , to compare to

sounds  tilted to me.
So many unpublished peudo-scientists giving opinions so little time-- I prefer to err on the side of caution towards the fish-- artificials or raw bait---both have worked well for many years for me ----- Cheers Hotrods

  Had one cat that ate sodium sulfite cured eggs every time I left them out, he lived to be 21 yrs. old, borax can be used for ant poison, I don't trust any scientific study unless I know who's paying for it and what they are trying to prove. If you want to colour your eggs try raspberry or cherry freshie although the sugar content will harden them after a day or two,  never tried the diet freshie sweetened with Splenda but who knows it may be poison to something it sure taste like it.
