Killer Clam!!
Anyone seen this before, My favorite Occi Clown must have gotten a bit too curious about my clam. Poor guy didn't make it, the clam is still healthy though.

yeah it really broke my heart, he was one of my 1st fish and had gone through three tanks with me, by the time i found him i would have had to kill the clam to get him out. was very sad but very incredible

gosh, i still feel really bad for the fish! 
i guess it was a fast way to go, i hope.
i think it was pearl divers i heard this happened to sometimes. they'd set a hand or foot down in the wrong spot and that was it. dangerous life.
