Emergency Moral Dilema

[Dale D]

If it is gaping really badly I would pull it out and put it out of it's misery. I always hate doing that, but, sometimes it is the best thing to do.

I might be nuts [img]tongue.gif[/img] but, I always find myself saying " I'm sorry" to an animal as I am putting it out of it's misery. I always feel that I have let it down and should have been able to do more.

Once they (sick clams etc) start giving off "substances" it usually attracts the savengers and decomposers of the tank and their activity usually finishes the animal off.

Sorry about your clam. :(
