What help are you referring to?

I keep flame scallops long term and use them as a “canary in a coal mine”. I no longer attempt “electric” flame scallops due to poor survival rates.

I needed help identifying what he is doing he stretches his mantel way down like a tounge sticking out I've never seen this behavior didnt know if it was dieng or if its natural or feeding or what and idk if its electric or normal flame because I've never personally seen the blue flashes so it might be a normal flame scallop this one is 4 months in my tank the other 2 are around a year old in my tank

It’s normal.

Blue flashing is characteristic of electric flame scallops.

Mines not flashing blue just red orange mantel and pale orange tentacles but he regularly extends his internal mental out like a tounge its weird
