My new fact for the day-

Old, large conch can also transmit the condition.

I go to Pensacola often. Remember the name of the place or the location? I'll have a seafood dinner next time we are down there and salute you.

Capt. Anderson's is very popular. The food is good but a little pricey. There is a place next to it where the sight seeing, fishing etc. boats go out which is a little cheaper but not much.

The Restaurant if it is still there was Phillip’s Seafood Restaurant. It was located on the South of Highway 90 maybe a mile West of the University entrance on 90.

If it is still there, order the mullet platter. They only have it when the mullet is fresh and it is delicious.

It is in no way comparable to Capt. Andersons but if all you want is good mullet at a good price it is just fine. In fact it is better than fine, it is a delicious meal at a low price.

We have made quite a few trips to Cozumel to fish. Ate a lot of them, never knew about this problem.

Anything with ‘mutton’ in it sounds dicey.

Paly toxin is no joke. A number of fellow reef keepers lost pets to this stuff. Certain types of coral like palythoa use this toxin as a defense. When fragging corals like palythoa, a lot of care needs to be taken. A friends dog got into the frag bucket and was dead in hours. I’ve even heard of people getting exposed by not knowing or not taking precautions. Who would know such amazing and beautiful corals like zoanthids and palythoa could be so deadly.

If you catch an 800-pound snapper....he is likely to be old enough to have eaten some dinoflagellates at some point in his life.

I would NEVER eat an 800-pound snapper and fortunately, I have never caught one that big....but I keep trying.

Capt. Anderson's is very popular.

Capt. Anderson's is here in Panama City

The founder, the lats Max Anderson was a good friend.

The restaurant is currently owned by the Patronis brothers and is located right at the Grand Lagoon/Treausre Island Marina where you can see the fresh seafood coming in.

It is a highly rated restaurabt and has earned many awards.

Some of the prettiest stuff in nature is the most deadly...
