Clam Splashing me?

[ItsMee]

This is freakn me out man! Twice now while walking by my tank at night I have heard a splash and got wet from it. What the?!?! I look but theres nothing there. My fish are too small to make that big of a splash and dont get spooked when I walk by. I do have a Derasa clam real close to the water's surface....what do you think?

It could be the clam. I had a clam that I would transfer to a small bin for feeding live phyto, and sometimes it would close up very quickly and shoot a stream of water several feet. It even got me in the face once

Yup, my huge squamosa has got me in the face a few times.

Yep, when you walk by the tank you probably cast a shadow which startles the clam. Snap!

 

[ItsMee]

Yeah, it scared me pretty bad...lol

Nah! That was me hiding in the closet and squirting you with a water gun.

Are you working on the MH lighting system install still?

 

[ItsMee]

Yeah...im waiting for my reflectors to come in the mail and my ballast (which should be here tomorrow).

Ok, I was wondering why your clam would still be so high in your tank.
