6 6 2014 fidalgo repro check

Followed the anesthesia sop at fidalgo. Attempted to keep the treatment Temps around 11 c where the ambient water was. The direct sun had other plans. Will need way way way more gel bags. even then it might be more than can actually fit in the tub with the samples.

Also to my and hopefully everyone else's surprise. I found a Brooding oyster! If you can guess which population it came from before you look below, you are one smart cookie.
