How does one store amaebi and live scallops in a tank

July 9, 2013 4:26 AM

I am having difficulty identifying sound information on the best practices for storing amaebi and live scallops. I can find plenty of information for non tank storage, but I would like information on PH, salt content, and temperature. Appreciation in advance.

Have you read up on saltwater aquariums? That's basically what you're talking about, except without the decorations.

jon,

I started by looking at saltwater aquariums actually, unfortunately most of the information is for decorative species such as the flame scallop.

I guess I'll start by calling some local pet shops.
