Mine also caught rust. You can use sand paper or something rough to clean the rust.

I have read somewhere that poppoms can survive with the nems. They will just use their feet to search for food. Btw you did not PM me the price that you got the pompoms for :P I will get one or maybe more depending on the price tag. And from where did you get it?
