    My clam is not opening and it looks like the ridge or opening is breaking off. What could the problem be.

    So sorry to hear that aaron! Clams are pretty tough. I had a Maxima for a couple of years and then just over night he died. Check the shell closely for pyramid snails. That could be an explanation.

    How old is your system?

    The set up is a couple of yrs. I checked the shell and didn't see anything wrong.
