KevinB Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Hi! I have been out of the loop for a long time now, but my wife has changed jobs and things have settled down. My tank is more or less the same, lots of growth. I went to corpus this weekend to fish, one of the things I caught was a 3lb chunk of oyster and barnacle shells. I brought it home to put in the tank. After letting it dry for 4 days I rinsed it off and put it in. Low and behold there was a 3-4" oyster that survived! He opened up right away and has been opening and closing periodically. I know they're not easy to keep but I have plankton that should work for food. Caio!

Timfish Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Good to see you posting again! Congrats on the oyster! I've got turkey wing clams reproducing in one of my tanks but I don't try to feed them specificly. There'as an autofeeder that sits above them but I doubt any actually makes it to them or theat they actually would eat pellets, atleast I've never seen them intake pellets.

ckyuv Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Welcome back! I think the barnacle rocks look super cool, I'm afraid to add barnacles to the tank because I don't want it to look like the docks in Galveston with barnacles growin on barnacles that are growing on barnacles to no end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
