My maxima clam's mantle appears to be rotting in two spots. It's a blue clam and the areas turned white a few days ago and now the flesh is looks like it's rotting. The clam is pulling in the ruffles with the afflicted area. I can't find anything online that looks like what the clam has. Any suggestions?
The clam is in a 46 gallon tank, 2 165W led lights (20% white, 60% blue), 2 feet from the lights, and not in direct flow. The clam is 6 inches, and I've had it for one and a half years. Parameters are ammonia-0, nitrite-0, nitrate-0, phosphate-0.06, calcium-360, alkalinity-4.1, magnesium-1140, salinity-1.025, pH-8.4. I do realize that the cal, alk, and mag are low, they're usually higher. I'm already bring those up currently. I don't run gfo, I run carbon and a skimmer. The clam's foot is damaged and has been ever since I got it.
Tank mates for fish are a ocellaris clown, six line wrasse, watchman goby, and black cap basslet. For the others, one scarlet skunk shrimp, one emerald crab, hermit, snails.
Thanks for any and all help!
