Responsa for Chullin 133:34

לא לשפי אינש שיכרא בצבייתא באורתא דילמא פריש לעיל מצבייתא והדר נפיל לכסא והוי עובר משום (ויקרא יא, כט) שרץ השורץ על הארץ

What is the reason of him who holds that the verse which treats of those that have [fins and scales] indicates the express permission? - He would say: It is from this verse that we derive the permission [for the creeping things found] in vessels.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. supra, p. 357. This verse clearly suggests that the qualification of fins and scales applies only to creatures found in the seas and in the rivers, as is stated explicitly in the verse, and not to creatures found in the water of vessels.');"><sup>8</sup></span>

Shut min haShamayim

Regarding the permissibility of soaked beans that don't contain worms. Some forbid these because there is a part that seems to move when they are wet. I asked [in my dream] whether in this case we should be concerned for the opinion of those who forbid1This is the opinion of Rabbeinu Yerucham 15:27, , or should we say that they are permitted, since when they are dried nothing is to be found.2The question discussed in Chullin 67a:15 is whether insects that grow inside detached fruit are forbidden under the category of 'those that swarm upon the earth" (Leviticus 11:41). See Tosafot on Chullin 67b:5, where Rabbeinu Tam and Rabbeinu Netanel reject this distinction, and cite Halakhot Gedolot 62 and Sheiltot of Rav Achai as supporting it. Nonetheless, the source in Tosafot add that 'beans known as pois are permitted by all'. This is also the opinion of a responsum of Rashi cited in Beit Yosef Yoreh Deah 84.
