Crocea clam compatibility

[sfarid123]

Hey guys,

I have a 55g mixed reef tank and planning to add a crocea clam.
My concern is that I have 1 orange fromia star, 1 banded coral shrimp, 25 blue & red legged hermits. Would the clam be in danger with any of the listed tank mates?

thanks

I'd worry about the coral banded: they're predators, and might take after the clam. Croceas also take very high lighting, as in mh or equivalent.

great , thanks for the reply, I guess I have to get rid of the shrimp or feed it to the clam

Would 4X54w T5's work?

I have a clam and my CBS never bother it. Occasionally when it's feeding time they might walk over the clam but the clam doesn't mind that much.

How about Nassarius snails , could they be a problem for the clam?
