I really like you clam too.
I think you scooter looks a little skinny though. Does he get enough to eat? Maybe you could buy some pods online or at the LFS to add to the tank.
I am debating taking him back to the store. The guy who sold him to me said he ate flake food (which I have heard some eat). He doesnt touch it that I see. I had a nice pod population when I got him, now there's none that I see. I think I'm going to take him back and get a yellow clown goby. I looked up buying pods online, but they are expensive and no LFS around here, that I know of, sells them. But the days of temp swings are gone! Now I am battling hair algae and diatoms. FUN! I'm buying an emerald crab this weekend, if that doesnt work, I'm taking the rock out and scrubbing it down, I'll lose the star polyps, but hopefully I'll lose the hair algae too. I've cut WAY down on feedings, I have a protein skimmer, I run carbon. I'm hoping all of this will work to get rid of it.
Pepito: I removed the bio-balls and ceramic rings. As soon as I can bring some live rock rubble I plan on removing the blue sponge also. I do put a piece of felt filter pad on top of the blue sponge, and replace that weekly. You would not believe how brown it gets in just a week! If you dont do that, I recommend it!
Thanks again everyone!
