Well it has been over a month since I first noticed my large squamossa not fully extending. I believe he has pinched mantle...my other clams were fine until a few days ago..now both the maxima and croeca seem to have it....here are a few pics....is this pinched mantle or something else??? Thanks

Looks like pinched mantle.
Flip then over and check out their bottoms. Any snails? Hinge problems?

Nope,no snails on the bottom of any of them,havent added anything new for months. I thought it looked like pinched mantle...just that I have never actually seen it in person...What a bummer,I wish I had an explination. Im trying to locate an extra MH light from a friend and move these to my 45 gallon QT just for the heck of it...to make sure nothing in my DT is bothering them.
