The clam was about 4-5 inches and as it was dying, I noticed all the bumblebee snails gathered on what's left of the mantle and finished it within a couple of days. (At first I thought they were killed by the snails... but I don't think they did.)
Yeah, unfortunately a comman mistake- blame the clean up crew. When that's what they're getting paid for.
Clams have a lot of meat to them, and when they die, they go out quick. Imagine a fish the size of a clam dying and decomposing in the tank. Now that's a bioload!
