Terry, I will have to look into that paper. However, I will not adjust my own treatment regime based on it. I have had success with the systems I have described and wil continue to do FWD on all new arrivals.

Because I do not have the study in front of me, I can only guess from your statement that the study was bases more on Hyposalinity than FWD.
IMO the appropriate low salinity levels required could not be sustained for more than 10 minutes rather than 18 hours. Also of consideration is the time period that the salinity change takes place. Most organisms can survive a wide range of salinity if changes are not made rapidly.
If you have the study formatted in such a manner that it could be emailed to me that would be great. I think you have my email address.
