I bought a clam last October and I think it died yesterday and I have no idea why. I think it is a Maxima clam and it was doing well until yesterday evening when I noticed it did not reopen after I cleaned the tank. It remained closed all night. This afternoon after the lights came on it looked partially open but no mantle was showing. So I decided to nudge it to see if it would respond. No response. Yesterday it seemed fine and today not so good. Do clams play possum?
Yesterday I ddi the following:
Scraped a large patch of coraline algae
Cleaned some GHA algae from some rocks
Re-secured some coral with new epoxy and frag super glue
Added some activated carbon to my reactor
Parameters:
Calcium 410
KH 7.7
Salinity 1.025
Nitrates 0.50ppm
Temp 78.2 deg F
