Bring out your clams!

[ReefTECK]

Six months of growth nearly 1 whole inch! I've had this deraesa under two 175 watt Metal Halides 20" from the surface. I'm so proud of my clam!

Anybody else got clams that your proud of?! lets see them!

This Deresa was 1.5" in length when I got it on July 24... it is now over 4" long (it grew 2.5 inches in less than 5 months):

BTW I try to keep my Ca level between 450 and 500 to encourage good growth

Freed,

You ever think to yourself, this clam looks alot like Tridacna tevora? Kinda does to me. I don't think it is, but that would be kewl.

Lovin all these pics guys!
