Hopefully someone here can help out!
I woke up yesterday to find my LARGE Derasa clam had managed to somehow detach its hinge. When I touch it, it still reacts and try’s to move, but you can feel that the 2 half’s of the shell move independently of each other and are not connected at the hinge anymore.
is there anything I can do to help him out other than just make sure his environment is good? Has anyone else had this happen and did the clam recover? Here’s some pics so you can see what I’m talking about.
When I got home from
Work he did seem to be able to somewhat open up, but not fully like normal. Here’s how he looked when I got home.
but this morning he’s back to being closed up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I’d hate to loose this clam, he’s so big and old, I’d just feel terrible.
