Help! I was trying to shift my clam to a new location using my long chopsticks. But it managed to clamp on one of the chopsticks and refused to let go. How can I make it release its grip without hurting it?

Thanks in advance for your advice. :P

can try dipping it into hotpot, sure open :)

haha jokes aside, it should release its grip when it feels safe again, try placing it with the clamped chopstick in a dimmer area with not much human traffic and leave it alone for sometime

Haha...then got to wait for tonight after I leave office because the only human traffic is me siting in front of the tank all the time. :)

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
