Hi,

I don't understand what the big fuss is about antibiotics. If you know your clam is in trouble, and you know that it will probably die (more than 50/50 chance), then why not take a chance. Sure, we don't quite understand what this stuff is, but we can at least try. Has anybody even tried it yet ?

And the heat theory...probably not. Tanks, on a daily basis, can move up and down 3 degrees F. Besides, this is not the only time we have had heat spurts ... we have these kinds of things every year. Heat moving up and down can stress a clam (probably), but it probably isn't the cause of the death.

- Victor.
