New clam disease
My LFS sent out an email saying that he was not going to be getting in any of his aquacultured clams until more is figured out about this:
http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/103287.php It makes me wonder, since the last 2 clams I bought from him are either dead or dying.

Re: New clam disease
I always thought the aquacultured clams were the small 1''-2'' clams.
Weren't your clams much larger?

Re: New clam disease
Yeah, mine are larger, but my LFS only brings in aquacultured clams. I suppose he pays more for bigger ones, but he always gets in a mix of different sizes.

Re: New clam disease
I was thinking of getting a clam. But I guess I can check that off my list.
