Thanks,

Just a small sump on the back for the pump and heater. Water changes every 1 - 1 1/2 weeks. Actually a very simple tank to maintain so far. Just finished a cyano cycle while I was away in WA.

...and would you believe the zoos came from a car salesman...who would uv thunk

The clam just recently closed up about 2 days ago. He was fully opened prior to that and beautiful. I am not sure what is going on with it. I did a water change 4 days ago. Any ideas? He attached himself to a small piece of LR with a red shroom on it and has been kind of dragging it around...do u think this has anything to do with it.

Rick,

It is not black. Its a dark maroon with gold spots. He has lightened up a little since I first bought him. I am trying to keep red and gold corals in the tank in hopes he maintains his coloration.

haha, i didnt even notice the angler, thats awesome!

Im not sure what is going on with your clam. Did anything in your setup change along with its behaviour? i always keep my clams in the middle on the sand bed so they dont attach to anything. but i dont think the shroom has anything to do with it...
 
The clam moves around the tank quite easily so keeping it away from things to attach to is impossible in this tank. Nothing has changed in the tank.
 
The light has been really good. They had a problem with the bulbs. The first buld blew in about three days. I called customer service and they sent a new one out right away. The only problem was I didn't get it until a week later. The second bulb only lasted two days. I called customer service again very upset this time. They sent another overnight and explained that they had sent the lder style bulbs to me by mistake. I have had the new bulb now for a couple months. Love the light. I will post a pic later on of the tank with the light.
