Who knows? Clams are odd creatures. I lost one last week to "white spot disease". I posted it on clams direct and the expert there told me they'd only ever seen/heard of 3 cases. It was the strangest thing, like ich for clams. Then it was dead. Now I just hope it wasn't highly contagious as I have 3 other clams in the tank

I worry because I added a clam, then had a death, and now another death. I'm not adding anything, but I am extrememly worried.
I removed my iron based phosphate remover, and I have been overzealous about the water changes. Hopefully it doesn't spread.

Sorry to hear about your guys losses. Christy, thats a weird one for sure.
Catherine, do you think its pinched mantle also? As I said earlier, I believe mine came on a maxima, that had a pinched mantle type affliction when I got it from another aquarist. Of course, I never knew what I do about it now. And I never freshwater bathed that one before it died. I,m going to wait until sure mine are healthy and then put some more phosphate remover back in. I think it was said high iron aggrevates pinched mantle more so than its cause.

I don't think it was pinched mantle for the second death, and the first one I'm not toally sure about. Still I removed my phosban just in case it aggrivates other conditions.
