carman34l Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Ok, I have searched every site and thread I could find in hopes of avoiding starting a new thread because I cannot take a picture to post this little guy... So I came home from work and was looking at the tank, Only a week and a half old, and I see a dark red, almost purple, nut shell stuck to the side of my LR, then I notice a white almost a cream semi-transparent flesh on the inside, it is only open maybe an 1/8th on a inch, looks almost like a little clam but with no vivid coloring, shape of a uncracked nut shell, I have looked for a picture on the net and found nothing. He has not moved since I got home, just hanging out in a hole in my LR. Good or Bad? Scott Link to comment

carman34l Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 I have been doing research all afternoon, what I have on my LR looks to be a small Flame Scallop, Is this possible??? Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Nah, its just a hitchhiking rock clam. They feed off the water column and often die... but a good number do live. Link to comment
