All of the above! I use plain water for routine soaking, but I also use the
other options you mentioned when the need presents itself.

Just curious! Are we all talking about soaking with just good ole H2O? We
have 3-4 different things we soak in besides the usual water. For the
bloodier specimens we find that a weak solution (1-5%) of ammonia hydroxide
is helpful. This particular solution is quite helpful on cartilagenous
tissues also. We have a "fibrous soak" and a decal 'block surface' soaker
too. Just thought I'd add my 2 cents and a little variety to our lives.
