Something ate my clam
I had a 1.5 inch baby maxima and today it was just a shell. I have others too, and every morning the clams are all knocked over. This is what I have in my tank:
1. lawnmower blenny 2. cleaner shrimp 3. 2 citron gobies 4. maroon clown 5. sally lightfoot crab 6. various snails and hermits What could've done it? |

Your clam probably died and the cleanup crew took over. I have tried a few of these baby clams form Jeff's and none of them have ever made it longer than 4 weeks.

I have had #1 and #2 eat my maxima clams. Scott Michael even states in his book that lawnmower blennies will eat clam mantles.
Sorry.
