oh it's totally dead. i'm sorry i wasn't more clear.
*sigh*
i'm going to take out what's left today, any recommendations on cleaning? the shell? I want to save it for future clams to attach to.
i have no idea. i know the smaller one died from stress. this one had been through a tank crash (not mine) and 2 injuries (powerhead/rock). i never got him to attach to anything either, in the 7 months i've had it.
all my params are good. my sps, shrimp, and linckia all look great. it was probably the move. i'm not sure.
i do know it hadn't been looking good since i got the xm 250w 15ks. i highly caution anyone against using this bulb on anything but the shallowest tank. the par is almost unreadable on the bottom of my 90. i'm not blaming that, this is definitely an aside.
anyway, yeah.
i'm going to wait a while for everything to settle down before i try another clam.
