How to monitor the general health of a freshwater clam?
I have a 30 G, with a small school of 5 black phantom tetras, 1 marbleized veil tail angelfish, many plants, ghost shrimp and assassin snails and one freshwater clam.
My question is how do you know if your clam is healthy. All of my fish, shrimp and snails are very healthy and stress free. My water quality is great with basically zero ammonia and 7.0 ph. As deteriorating and dead clams cause ammonia spikes, is there anyway to monitor their general health?
He stays shut tightly inside most of the time, but rarely moves. I've worked very hard for the harmony and water quality, and I don't want this clam to mess everything up.
