MODERATORS
As long as they stayed on the surface, they should be okay. It's pretty insane how effective pools are at stopping radiation.
IIRC, you can tread water in a reactor pool for a while before having a bad time. And since the radioactive stuff is all denser than water, the dangerous particles sink so minimal exposure to danger on the ingestion front.
