Small maxima with PMD
Hello,
I have a maxima clam which I’ve had around 3 weeks now and I’ve noticed it has a pinched mantle at one end. After reading the sticky I decided to try a fresh water bath. I used Rodi water, matched the temp and put an air stone in for a few hours then added the clam for exactly 30mins. I added my clam back to the original tank in a different location. There is no other clams in the tank. Clam did ok, and next morning is open, but same area still pinched will a little stringy sercreation Around the infected area of the mantle. How long do I wait to see if the treatment has been affective? It is only a young clam and only around 2”. This picture was taken before treatment. Thanks E5BBFB63-8A3C-46AF-8A31-70BDCF4DA621.jpeg

Wait a few days and see if he improved.
The reason why I recommended place the clam far away from it's previous location is to keep any parasite that my be around the previous location to attach back on the clam.
