Tom,
You probably wont see any stress from your clam. It will just be dead one
day. That is the thing with clams. They don't really show much stress. They
always seem happy until one day they are dead. These snails will cause its
demise unless you get something in the tank to continuously keep them in
check. Six lines are good, as are leopard wrasses (as suggested earlier).
You are going to want to get one of these today if possible, IMO.
As far as USB cords go, I was looking for one of those myself. We had this
discussion some time ago on this list, and never really found a good
solution. You can find short extensions (if I remember right 6ft is max) and
link them, but the problem is you will loose speed and quality. I don't know
how far you want to run yours. I wanted to run 30 ft. I never did end up
finding anything that would work well and just gave up. Cosco has them
fairly cheap if you are only looking to run a couple of them.
Sorry, no suggestions on the coral and algae.
Shane

Well I scrubbed off the little white snails and I must say when I
removed
the clam the base was loaded.But I have to say there were no signs
of
stress.My next problem is I have a Clavularia(sp?) with these
little brown
Algal puffs that form a net of rootwork around this coral. I wish I
had an
USB extention cable for my USB camera which by the way has some
stunning
close up resolution so I could post it. Anyway it stresses the coral
to much
to remove the coral and remove it. In the past it has worked but the
coral
didn't open for almost a week and the open polyps were sparatic. Any
idea's
on what this is?What herbivore if any like munching on this stuff?
Also
anywhere I can find a USB extension?I know that Firewire stuff looks
just
like it but I need a female at one end and a male at the other.
Thanks
Tom
