Clams at Golds

[kari]

Clam on the right found at Golds this week. Clam on the left with bryopsis is not from Golds. I'm going to point that out to my buddy the sea hare when I'm done posting this .

Is it huge? man...

How much, Kari?

[kari]

If I remember right the prices were from 39 to 69. The one pictured above is about 4" or 100mm. They did have smaller ones approx. 2" length that have very nice color. Its hard to pick a clam looking thru the side of the tank Thru the side it is blue and from the top it is green.
Don't quote me on the prices as I wasn't really paying much attention when told.

So that is Bryopsis eh , I can't say I like it. Do you have any idea where that stuff comes from Kari

[kari]

Bob, I think it comes from poop Not really sure but have been reading notes of it being related to chronic low alk and high nutrient levels. Good to hear you don't have any in your tank.

No honestly I have never seen it, so whatever I am doing wrong at least I don't have algae problems.

Steve,

Here's a pic of the bryopsis (circled in red)

Also, do you have any idea what the other stuff (circled yellow) is? The color is accurate in the photo. Taken under 10k halide. Its not rigid, more like a caulerpa and purple in color. I haven't seen it before. I was thinking I'd put it in my main tank and pretend it's a Bali acro

Thanks

I see you got there before me and got the best clam....

[StirCrazy]

so what eats that stuff?
