I'm not sure of the rules here, and it's not my intention to put any one vendor on blast. I would like to discuss long-term success of clams from different clam sellers. After doing some digging, I discovered one particular vendor that has built a reputation for having great clams might not have great long term success rates after all. I've found a lot of people posting about how great their clams look upon arrival, but if you check back six months later, a lot of times the clam has died. As a lot of us know, it's sometimes hard to pinpoint the cause of a clam death, and I'm not saying it's not sometimes simply the fault of an inexperienced aquarist. But I've also found that success with clams also means starting with a healthy specimen.
I would hope vendors would take such discussion not as insulting but instead useful and informative for them as well. Hopefully to pinpoint and fix any issues.
Obviously, I do have one particular vendor in mind but I want to make sure its okay to open a discussion like that before I mention who it is.
