dying clam at the LFS?? :(

johnny505 · 02-28-2006, 01:12 PM

I was at the LFS last night and there was a Crocea clam for sale, but I was told it was dying because it wasnt under the right lighting. there was actually no coloratin on the side of it... it was white. I asked him if he would take half price for it and he said yes but he told me it wasnt a good idea since he thought it was dying. will it get its color back if he is under the right light and maybe be normal?

I know blame the store,they shouldnt have ordered him without the lights to sustain him even temporarily.

they usually move them very quickly. he wanted like 90.00 for this one though.
