Preserving fish teeth and skulls - #3

After the 2nd water change and 2 weeks of maceration, this is the result.


The water is not so cloudy anymore but you can still see bits and pieces of flesh/fat on the surface.

I threw away the water and removed the bones from the bottle. Rinsed the bones in water and used my long needle to scrape out any other visible specks of flesh.



As you can see, the bone is rather yellowish and slightly sticky to the touch. After cleaning the bones thoroughly, a final rinse and put out in the sun to dry.


Going to dry them for about 2 days.
