I bought a clam from liveaquaria and it died the first day. They gave me my money back and so I bought two more, I had to pay for shipping anyway, why not two. The two seem to be doing great. But I wonder about their color. It started out pale and it is getting a little darker color with time. Can I expect them to get more colorful or just darker color? Will their patterns ever change? They have not attached yet, one did just a little and the other not at all. I took the shells I'm trying to stick them to out of the sand hoping to make it quicker. Is any of this sounding like a bad idea? I'm not sure if I'm doing this right.
Here are some pictures from the last few days.
Day one.
 Day two.
 Day three.
 I also got this duncan while I was at it.

They look beautiful. I wish we had done the shell thing! Ours scootched over to the front glass and attached. Not cool. I think they will show more and more color with time. ------------- Andreason's |
