Promptly paid $500 for gigas clam. After 3 weeks of very poor communication he promises to ship. Another week goes by and no clam...lots of promises of sending "extras"...gives lame excuse that he has a 5mo old baby, he crashed his drone, he goelt water in his phone etc (I have entire IM history on this). Finally, after proactively bugging him to send he sends the clam on Monday, shipped from @AlgaeBarn (he works there). I reveive clam on Tues. And its dead (pictures to confirm). Gave it benefit of doubt amd left in tank for 24hr. I messaged @Dabcrusher the situation. He askes what the temp of water in box was. It was 68 degrees on arrival. Since that one notw he has ghosted me. Today clam was dead dead dead so I removed it from tank. Sent pics of dead clam and ZERO response. He swindled.me out of $500. BEWARE. Not sure if this is also representative of @AlgaeBarn practice or just @Dabcrusher. You can bet you behind that I am going to dispute thisnwith my bank.

I haven't made excuses to you we agreed not to ship it until its above freezing. And I don't live on r2r and I couldn't charge my phone. Algaebarn don't have anything to do with this I specifically sent you a message saying that I just shipped it from there to get good shipping rates and you said that's fine I was going to take care of this but you start bashing me on here before it's been even 24 hours since the situation has happened .

Yeah, @Dabcrusher just washed his of me and this situation. So, Im screwed. "I was going to make it right before you called me out" doesnt hold alot of water for me. At least now I have a $500 empty shell.
