Hey All,
I have a 90g, I have HQI 14k lamps. My Water parameters are PERFECT and stable.
Ammonia = 0, Nitrite = 0, Nitrate = 0, Phosphate = 0, dkh = 17, Calcium = 420.
I bought a blue/purple clam from the LFS it was fully open and happy at the shop, I bring it home it opens only about 1/4" and the mantel doesn't open up, it stays fully inside the shell. It's definity alive, you can see it moving..
I brought it back to the LFS and traded for another clam, The clam Ibrought back is now fully open and happy again at the LFS, and the new one is much the same as the last in my tank. I don't understand why, I'm sure my tank is cleaner and better than theirs.
Please help.
Thanks,
