first of all i am in no way looking to ruin this guy's purchase, it is a beautiful calm i have 2 zebra maximas myself. i hope it is a healthy clam and wish him the best of luck with it. i just would not want to see this guy pay all that money for a clam that came out of a tank filled with sps and lps where there is alot of water warfare going on and maxima clams do not take kind to that. if your eyes work you can see that there is something going on with most of the maximas in that tank. and to you reefkoi no i do not use drugs or drink alcohol either.
