clam ID please

[bpd964]

I had this clam for about 1 month and it's growing like crazy. I can't figure out if it's a derasa or gigas or something else.. The guy at the LFS wasn't sure either. hmm

it's about 4"

Help please..

it looks like a gigas to me

Thank you very much..

I hope you guys have big tanks.Gigas get huge.
My LFS tried to sell me a Deresa as a Maxima.

definatly a giga. i have 2

(her son who is 17) My mom and I have a Deresa very simmiler to that one, so my educated guess would have to be a Deresa. Great find!!

I'd have to say gigas. the dots that are visible in the first pick, and the striated (sp?) color.

Gigas...no doubt

That's a cultured T. gigas. Be warned, it's going to grow super fast and get super big.

Wow, you guys are great. I was going back and forth as to what it was myself. I guess at this point, majority rules.. GIGAS it is..

Thank you ...
