All,
I have had this teardrop maxima for 3 years now. It has been a growing well and doing great in my tank with one small exception for these past 3 years. That exception was that he moved around a lot. He would never put down byssal treads and stay still.
Recently, he had moved himself into a place recently that I needed to move him out of. As I had done many times before, I gently lifted him off the substrait and moved him back to a rock. He left behind a glob of byssal threads off a clump of tissue. I did not use any force at all to move him, he just lifted off the sand and left that behind.
Since moving, he has closed up tightly and does not open.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, John
