They taste good. Especially with electric koolade.

So not a good idea..? My gf comes home from running to the lfs for me and tells me about it, but I have no idea about these things...

Some electric sweet tea might be nice with it as well...

I had one... it died... my friend had one... it died... thats all I know about them.

That seems to be the popular answer thanks, looks like no electric scallop in her future...

Unless you have a really dirty tank they will not live long. I wish fish stores would stop trying to sell them.

you can try the regular flame scallop, i had both, both died, even tho the regular flame lasted like less than 1 month. dont remember how long the electric lasted.

I read up on this a while back. If I remember right, Flame scallops aren't true scallops and are there for relatively easy to care for. I believe the article said they were classified as some sort of clam.

Flame scallops starve and die.

 

Since all scallops seem to starve and die, technically we're doing them a favor by broiling them up in butter and garlic.
