    Dealing with Aiptasia on My Clam

    My clam is usually doing really well in my tank. However, I just noticed there is Aiptasia on it this morning, and it's not opening very wide. But it still seems sensitive to light. Do I need to get rid of the Aiptasia? Does Aiptasia harm clam?

    My new clam arrived from interstate completely separated from his rock. His entire foot ripped out!

    The packaging wasn’t the best treated. Half water missing and the clam in 2 pieces. I’m thinking I have 2 as it’s my 1st clam experience. A maxima. I’ve taken it out & underneath it is a huge empty hole, I also copped a spray. Very gross. I’ve examined the rock piece and the other part of his...

    Clam on live rock?

    Hi all Tank is swarming with copepods and this weekend I finally get to add a fish (still deciding on the first tank mate!) I saw this weird clam like shell on the live rock.

    Clam? If so, which one?

    Howdy. I’ve been considering getting a clam for a while and my tank is now a bit over a year. Parameters seem to stay pretty stable, with my alk at 9, calcium 430, mag 1260. I struggle with elevated phosphates (most recently .81, which is actually pretty good) but I’ve heard clams like some...

    Hey all! I'm looking for suggestions on corals that will be happy on the sand bed, or on a small island for support if needed at the very bottom of my tank. PAR in the area I'm looking at comes in around 220. I've been looking around and visited the best local coral shop for inspiration, but I'm...
