It is definatley a clamademic!!!

As Doug and I feared the clam I got from him did not make it last night, thought it was turning around but then late last night to all just went to mush.

And now to top that off the other big clam that I got from Doug almost a year ago is dieing too.

I dont care what anyone says bristol worms KILL!! I have been checking all the remaining clams for the last week to see if there are any of those snails anywhere and NONE. BUT there where BW's I pulled 2 off both my larger clams, the one from Doug and the one from Rick.

Now a perfectly healthy clam is dieing and I DO attibute it all to BW's at least for the ones that have been in my tank for more then 3 months


PS DOUG CLEAR YOUR INBOX DUDE

should have gotten a pic of the worms, there are alot of types of bristle worms some are harmless and have been found with bellies of algae some have been seen killing fish........if your clam is in the sand it wouldnt be surprising to pull a clam out and find some bristle worms as they are nocturnal and hide in the sand and rock throughout the day

is anyone watching these clams through out the night and early morning??

i also find it hard to believe that everyone is having bristle morn hunger attacks at the same time on the same species when they have alot of extra food around anyways.


has anyone been having clam troubles before winter???
