Richard972 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 So my tailspot blenny has developed a taste for my Maxima clam's mantle. I have moved the clam to my other tank for now, but I do not monitor or dose Cal. in that tank. So looking to borrow a small fish trap, I will pay to use it. Need to get this Blenny out of my SPS tank and get my clam back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuncrestReef Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Wow, that's surprising to me. My tailspot only ever nips at algae on rocks or the back glass of my tank. Sorry to hear about your dilemma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clam has been upset set for about two weeks but couldn't find any pests. Then today I witnessed my tailspot harassing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazyreefer Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I have had a lot of success with the bottle trap and it’s so easy to make, you probably have thought of that already though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Where do you live? I’ve got a small bottle trap I made that works quite well. I live in Tigard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard972 Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 I'm going to try to make a bottle trap and see if I can get the little guy. If mine does not work, will take you up on your offer Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard972 Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 I had already. The spawn was a last ditch to spread its dna. The clam died over night. Something more was going on then being harassed by a tailspot.Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
