Clam Still in trouble!!

[Hens4Fish]

I looked into the tank this morning and this is what I saw. He has stopped spawning, but looks like he is dead or dying, my nitrates were still a bit elevated, and my urchin was loosing spines, but the other corals look good and the rest of my levels were fine, please advise what to do. Also, I touched his shell and he did not retract or anything. Should I remove him from the tank in case he dies?

this happened after he spawned?

He spawned yesterday. Or at least I thought he was spawning.

why is your water so cloudy? did you not do water changes after the spawn or turn up your skimmer?
please do a water change, 25% x 2 in the course of 2 days. also run as much carbon as you can, preferably through a reactor.

My water yesterday was so cloudy I could not see 2 inches into the tank, he just kept shooting white stuff out his syphon. I have done 3 25% water changes and completely changed out my carbon twice, the water is quite a bit better than it was yesterday. Is he dying?

I would say since it was so large and sexually mature. The moving to a new tank conditions caused it to spawn. Don't know that he is dying, but doesn't look happy because he just messed up his water.
Let us know how he's doing.

Good Luck, but keep up wit weekly water changes to improve your water quality until everything settles down....

Stress induced spawning...
