RBT moved

[acrouse]

One of my RBTs have moved out and is now very close to a clam. Could this cause any problems for the clam?

My RBTA has 'tickled' my Squam a few times that I have seen with no problems. Its been like a tiny tiny touch(if that makes sense). I have seen pics of clams right next to clams. With those peaople saying that the clam just got used to it. The later is NOT my experience just what ive read. In my little experience the clam twitched its mantel but showed no injuries.

If the clam is not retracting its mantle it is fine.

prolly ok... id become more worried if there is a chance the anemone moves onto the clam shell... that would be trouble.
