Hey All,
So my tank is about 8 months along and a friend of mine just gave me this blue maxima clam. I acclimated him for over 2 hours as well as 'burped' him. I placed him in the bottom because I have seen them there in the lfs. I noticed his mouth gaping open and I placed him more near the top figuring it was a light issue. But now...he looks horrible! And the cleaner shrimp is all over him so much and he just snaps right up. I'm worried about him! I know nothing about clams. Any help would be great guys! Thanks!
