Re: Tanked crinoids

     Now, that's a *real* question. In connection with the thread on 
     segmentation, we could learn a lot from looking at the developmental 
     biology of crinoids. If someone has tame crinoids, have they managed 
     to find larval and embryonic stages? As far as I know, nobody has 
     looked for hox expression in crinoids (though I'd not be surprised to 
     learn of work coming out of Japan, say from Hidetoshi Saiga's lab).
     
     By the way -- message for Norm McLeod -- 
     Norm -- I don't seem to be receiving postings I've sent to Paleonet, 
     though I see everyone else's. Is this your problem or mine?

Out of curiosity, do any aquariums have living crinoids?
