[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 308980, member: 968"] If a tank is EMPTY of nitrogen with just vapors - the semen should be fine. As an example: Dry shippers are just what the name implies. They have no liquid that you could pour out. It is lined with some obsorbant material, the semen is kept frozen with just the vapors. Regular tanks do not "obsorb" the nitrogen. The tank was "warm" so it made the nitrogen evaporate quickly til all the cannisters & tank got down to right temp. Not sure if it would evaporate 5 inches. What happened (I assume) is that since the tank was warm, the nitrogen bubbled out much faster than if it was cold. He should have waited a few minutes, than refilled after it quit bubbling. [/QUOTE]
