Anyone know???

cat see why noy. the japanese rat lots of seaweed as a psrt of their diet.

Alux, you're looking quite fishy today, all of a sudden.

Dunno about kelp. I thought it was a sort of food, in which case, yes. I think if you ate loads there might be a heavy metals issue? You'd probably have to live on it though.

LOL that's how I type when I have a baby as wiggly as a bag of monkeys on my knee. couldn't even review before I posted.

I don't think there would be a heavy metal issue. that is a problem for carnivorous fish who eat loads of little fish. It takes a lot of fish-eating to concentrate dubious amts of heavy metals.
