<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">There is a fine sandy substrate on the bottom of the Coelacanth display. I remember that the movers had the Coelacanth in a container filled with alcohol, and
the sand and alcohol were added to the glass display tank. The sand was allowed to settle before the Coelacanth was placed into the display tank. Some of the gneiss with mica that were floating tin the tank could easily settle on the coelacanth specimen.
This would explain the small amount of glitter that I see on the Coelacanth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Glad (in a way!) that the turbidity test proved to be positive as it indicates that you have a large amount of lipid in solution as well as (probably) coating the specimen and this bears out the reason for the pH lowering.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The glitter is odd. Have there been (or are there still) small pebbles in the display tank? Sometimes designers will add these to improve the appearance of the specimen and these often contain small bits of glitter, rather like gneiss
with mica.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The issue with the 5% formalin versus alcohol - I still stand by what I said although I should have added: provided that it is well maintained! Always a problem these days with thinner collection staffing levels. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Try a simple turbidity test as well. A Petri dish on a black background with some water init - pipette some of the alcohol from the specimen - is their any cloudiness or turbidity at all? If so, the this would represent saturation of
lipid (normally from the liver) and which has likely oxidised forming fatty acids - lowering of pH. The scales looked rather orange too which would also suggest lipid saturation but that might have been due to photographic lighting?<o:p></o:p></p>
