Damnit, I have 228 liters of dirty water...
Sounds like you need two oysters
Good thing the 2nd oyster is free if you call now!
But if I have 2 oysters they're gonna over clean the water or the second oyster is just gonna be wasted on only 1 liter of water.
You will have room for future expansion. The oysters filter water every day.
Get 1 1/227 oysters.
Holy shit you're a genious!!1
okay but how do i stop myself from eating the mollusk? thats barely 100 kcal
Oh, shucks
Eating the mollusk will enable you to drink the dirty water and have it filtered in your very own guts.
Let it filter the water and eat it afterwards.
does this hurt the oyster
Don't think so, but we can make it painful if that's what you want?
Can they scream? If not, can we make that happen?
Ohh for sure, we can do that, you want just "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRHRHRHRHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" type of basic scream or you want it to go into specific details on where and how it hurts?
Both at the right decibel to not cause pain to the human listener, but loud enough to be heard at a distance.
they make pearls with the pain
Well you know what they say, can't make an omelet without excruciating pain
I'm pretty sure this is just how they eat
Not really. You probably should avoid putting heavily polluted water through them though. They are the oceans waste buckets for poo water.
One of many reasons I don't eat shellfish.
Pollution easily kills shellfish. If anything, that’s an indication that they are clean and from clean places. Oysters feed of phytoplankton, not waste/garbage and pollution.
Yes, it can. It can clog their gills, making their feeding less efficient, or interfere with their reproduction through chemicals that leach from the plastic particles. Source: I study bivalves
Oysters actually need clean/unpolluted water. What they eat and clean is sediment, phytonutrients, and phytoplankton. Well at least that’s what I was tood by an oyster farmer. They clear the water which is good for the sea grass, and the small fish, which is good for the big fish and so on.
Will it take care of the nano-plastics for me or is that an upcoming firmware update?
Never buy a product based on a promise of a future update
it will, but please do not eat the oysters. However, even the oysters cannot save your from nanoplastics.
They are confirmed to be able to gather nano-plastics as larvae, and microplastic as adults, though no studies have looked at nanoscale particles in adult oysters from what I could find. They may ingest the plastic or package it up in mucus to expel as "pseudofeces", trapping the plastic particles in the sediment. Source: I study bivalves
227? I got 2x 230. They always make it so that it is just too little so you buy another one! Slimy scammers!
Found George Banks.
The 800 number is missing a digit. Now how am I supposed to get my oyster?
Well there’s only 10 options, try them all! (For science)
Yeah but that'd be giving in to Pierre Jules Cesar Janssen and we can't be having that
I gotchu fam. It is 1-800-867-5309
What do you recommend for a 1000L IBC tank?
5 oysters.
6, there be overage
You can offset that by changing the feeding schedule. Just replenish the tank with gray water every other day instead of daily and you should be fine with only four.
All good, but it's gotta be salt water. I guess I can use it to boil pasta or blanch vegetables...
How about mussels? Can they filter water?
That's a big ass bucket
The pearl industry hates this one trick
This si what science textbooks are going to look like in 20 years.
I before E, except after C.
I feel like most of those words would be pronounced very differently with IE
