    How long does something need to stay still for a CT scan and can you send water through, just thinking about aquatic animals if you could just send the tank through.

    Looking at my axolotl who can happily sit there not moving for hours in the hope of ambushing prey, staying still should be easy enough.

      Depends what imaging technique they’re using. X-ray CT might work ok with a little water in the way. Nuclear magnetic resonance might not be so good.

      On OkCupid, I once briefly courted a woman with the username “RazeTheAxolotl.” One of my opening questions was whether she meant “raise” or “raze.” She meant “raise.”

      I don’t think asking that helped with my chances. We didn’t end up going on any dates.
