Does it smell like vinegar? If it's free of mold/mildew-inhibitors and is acetic acid cure, it looks OK to me. Of course, the best thing to do is...
T. derasa belongs on the substrate, and won't attach to anything as they rarely secrete byssal threads. If the clam keeps moving, something is...
Not reef safe...it's a member of the gorilla crab family.
Can you pull the snail out and shoot a good pic of its "back" as well as a pic showing the shell aperture?
4 months should be OK, unless the nasty little vampires have decided to feed on your CUC snails (if you have them). Be sure to give any new clam a...
Sometimes dry rock that hasn't been cleaned by the vendor still has a good amount of organics on it...dried, but still organics. If the rock hasn't...
That Antennatus sanguineus on DD is < 1" long and unless you have experience in feeding tiny preds, you'll likely lose it (not to mention tiny juvies...
I'd be curious as to what the "clam soak" is. I tend to not trust "mystery preparations". Clams would likely be sensitive to anything that affects...
I'd run whatever your favorite chemical filtration medium is beneath the foam block, no bioballs. Also, don't forget to rinse the foam block out in...
Not sure what you mean by Nassarius being "aggressive"...they pop out when they smell food and if there's any on the substrate, they eat it. We keep...
About the only other thing it could be is either a bad impeller, the pump is burned-out, or that the pump is sitting too deep (or too shallow) in the...

This was me: [IMG] Seriously, SOAK your finger(s) in vinegar...don't just dab it on there. These were gone within 5 mins or so.
Sounds like the venturi intake is clogged. Have you checked it?
You'll want to worm the fish using Fenbedazole here are the directions, courtesy of SH.org: FENBENDAZOLE (granules) Dosage and Preparation...
It kinda depends on which fish you keep as well...some fish do better with less flow, others don't mind a fair amount. However, other than that,...
Just yank out the bioballs and you have a sump.
I disagree with your definition. Pulsing PH's can make waves, but that's not the only kind of wavemaker there is, nor does it have to be...
I think you mean niTRATES, but what causes this is lack of regular filter maintenance.
I'd suspect it's more likely that the fish has lockjaw, but without some pix, it's all speculation. Does the fish's mouth look like it's locked open?
