TROPLIST: post-natal lethargy

[kris vleminckx]

Dear all,

we have recently noticed that upon boosting and egg-laying of trops, 
they become very lethargic. They do not show any escape responses and 
just float at the surface. Occasionally they may die the next day. Is 
this a normal reaction to the hormone-boost (I have not found a human 
volunteer to try it out), or should I suspect that something slipped in 
our (Sigma) HCG stock and causes this reaction?

Thanks for your thoughts

Kris
