Doriftu Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Found this dug into the back of my new ric piece, i removed it and set it in the sand. It opens up in the dark, but seems to close in the light. Anyone know what it is, and if's beneficial or not to the nano. Any help is greatly appreciated. Link to comment
Cetra324 Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Some kind of mussel is my guess. Link to comment
Tballa Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Yeah first thought as i looked at it is that it is a mussel. Same shell shape and characteristics. Link to comment

Doriftu Posted July 15, 2005 Author Share Posted July 15, 2005 jennie, ya i noticed that last night, i kept watching him to see what he was doing, and he was definetely filtering, it was also interesting to watch pods running in and out. Link to comment
Tballa Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 keep it. it looks like a cool hitch-hiker! I never get stuff like that. Just make sure that if it dies, get it out of there quickly. Link to comment
