    RIP and Who Done It?

    No 1 Clams do not have to attach! After keeping and shipping over 31,000 clams, no problem with clams 2" or larger but less than 2", a little challenging. How did it look the day prior to that one picture where it was totalling gone? Was it a slow decline like where the mantle started to...

    Derasa Clam mantle sinking in

    That statement above is SO true. Everytime someone has a problem that is what we hear. There are many things that people do not test for. The norm is salinity, pH, ca and alk and people say everything is perfect when indeed most likely it is not. Like mentioned above, it could be many...

    Tridacnid Work Shop

The lobster project has been more time consuming then they originally anticipated. This lobster project is also what Dave's thesis is based on. With...

    Clamtastrophe

    We have done FWD on a lot of customers clams that bring them into the store and have never had one spawn after the dip. Spawn is caused by stress. Make sure the water temp is the same as the tank water and use RO water. I would recommend do some water changes after the spawn. Add some...
