all 5 of my clam now have pinched mantle, one is really bad and the others are just starting it. just curious how many FW dips you do and how far apart to try and help them, also duration in the fresh water
thanks jeff
remove any iron based phosphate removers and add carbon(3 to 4 liters) to a reactor or canister filter(a bag in the sump wont work)run as much water through the reactor or canister as you can. also if you add iron or any other trace elements stop for now.
half fill a 5g bucket with RO/DI water and match the temp to you tank water and place the clams in there for 20min. it may return in 1 or 2 weeks, if so repeat the dip. replace the carbon at least once a week
