I awoke this morning and found my prized teardrop maxima DEAD. :( I had to stay strong but deep down I wanted to cry. Please take a moment of silence for my dead clam. :sick

Wow,

Sorry to hear that Clint. I feel your pain. It really stinks when something just up and dies like that. Guess most of us that have done this awhile have been there though.

Yeah it really sucks. I spent a lot of time looking for a clam like that and then one day dead. Guess I need to go on a clam shopping spree and find some more cool ones. Thanks for all the support guys I really appreciate it. ;)

Sorry..What a beautiful clam. Any idea what caused his demise?

He was stressed from shipping all the way from WI about 3 months ago and never had a good week. It was always up and down with him. He had a brother that was nicer than him that didn't make the move. I have one left from that batch and seems to be doing well.

Sorry to hear about the loss. I had to give mine up about two years ago when I was getting rid of my old tank, had him for a couple of years and he was growing great. Sure hope to get another one soon.
