Just returned from weekend of camping and one of my scallops is dead and the larger is opened wide and dying.
Of course I will test water, but everything looked great all week long since I switched tanks last weekend. Otherwise the tank looks fine now.
Only thing that comes to mind is I feed some DT phytoplankton on Friday before I left. I had just purcahsed it and when I opened it I noticed a slight sulfer smell. Expiration is 1 Dec 2005. Is this normal for phytopalnton? If not I suspect it as the culprit.
Either way I am removing what is left of flame scallop and conducting a pwc.
