NOTHING at all....this is the 29G, and I have not added a thing....I did have to move the clam though....IDK if you remember....this is the one that started on the left of the tank...and maneuvered itself all the way to the back right..LOL...Well my Frogspawn go soooo big, I had to rearrange a couple of things, so I moved the clam back upfront.
This was a couple of weeks ago though....BUT that is all I have done to this tank....I do w/c's on it about 4-5G's every other wweek...and I change one carbon bag each time (has 2)
I did do a w/c yesterday also, even tho I did one last week, and I did change another carbon bag as you suggested...

What new things were added to the tank recently? Just trying to figure out if it's annoyed by something (the fish) or it if is a parasite form?

I would just leave it be and observe it for a day or two before you make the decision to dip again.

UPDATE...LOL....OK....I can't get a pic right now cause I kinda stirred things up :-0
The clam has a small spot on each side.....I was watching it earlier and got to thinking.....the clam went from the left front of the tank....all the wya to the back right on its own.....when I moved teh frogspawn, I took the clam out of the back and put it front right......then I notice this,,,
hmmmmm......could I have upset it......SO...I moved a little sand around, and placed the clam back on the right side of the tank (side...not front)
I will let the tank re-settle...I am making some more water for a w/c tomorrow also....I will then see how the clam does
Does this make sense to you guys??????

That sounds okay to me. The less stress it's put through, the better off it may be. I'm still surprised by all this as Derasas are less likely of all the giant clams to get PMD.

I would wait it out, especially since you moved it back to its"happy place."

Well...the derasa looked a little better this morning....it still has the 2 spots, BUT was open more then it has been the past week or so
I am going to do a water change later on this evening, and just keep an eye on it......Apparently it doesn't like the front on the tank....I have a K1 on the left side blowing across, which is not very strong, but she must not like it
who knows.....

Any change here? Is it all better? Are you writing a suspense novel?

HMMM..Here is a sad update....My Derasa died
It had actually started to look good after I put it back in the back of the tank, BUT the last few days I noticed something wasn't right....and the past 2 days it was closed....I figured something was bothering it....today I decided to check it... It was dead....so I removed it
OH well......
