Oh that's sad. It had such beautiful colours too. I had a clam that died on me about a month ago. The funny thing was that it was injured about 4 months before that and just never fully opened or extended it's mantle. It did seem to be getting better and then BAM - dead. Other than that I have had good luck (knocks on hairy wooden head) with my clams.

Ok, so it didn't croak
 I read this great thread on RC and introduced my clam to some bondage  Heres the link:http://reefcentral.com/forums/showth...ghlight=gaping Really when you think about it, it seems quite obvious but I certainly wouldn't have thought of doing something like that. I was just resigned to turning the lights out and waking up to two half shells the next morning. Instead I now I have this:  Everything appears normal but I'm too chicken to remove the string until the 2 weeks are up or the mantle protrudes between the shells more. And since we're on day 3 here, its got a ways to go. I can only hope this works!
