Basser what lighting do you recommened. I mean what bulb and K? I have a 250W DE 20k Blueline. Going to get XM's but what K would you recommend? 10k? 15k? 20k?

First of all, I am by no means an expert on clam keeping. There is a sticky on lighting requirements. After reading it, it looks like you should be fine with your set-up.

I have a 3" maxima that I have in my 29 gallon Biocube. For lighting I have 150 watt 14k MH phoenix de bulb, supplemented with 2 - 36 watt 10k actinic bulbs. I've had it now for a little over a month now and already it is showing new growth on the scutes. I do have my clam situated mid-way in my tank and it is placed on a half clam shell on the rocks.

I would take a maxima of the sand bed and place it on a rock. I thought that maxima and crocea needed to be placed on a rock ledge due to there open foot.
