Long story short I bought a clam about 6-8 months ago.....Cletus has exploded in growth (He was about 1.75 inches when bought and now is like 4 or 5inches now) and done really well. However this may or may not have just changed over night. This morning I checked in the tank and saw a fairly large mass of white stringy stuff mixed with sand. I am like 99% sure this came from Cletus. In addition to him loosing his white stuff he manged a full 180 degree turn....For the life of me I am struggling to get a decent picture but I attached what I could. He was fully open today and closed tight and fast when I bumped his shell gently. Now that I can see the mouth fully it doesn't appear to be any different then usual. Any chance they just shed the fibers once and while? I haven't to tried picking him up with the concern of causing more damage.
