Crocea Clams from Vietnam

[Buddy Pine]

Just sharing what i've acquired during Boxing Day Sale from my LFS. Freehand photo shoot under one 400W XM 20k (temporary in my sump).

This is my favourite, I just love pattern on it.

If clams were cars, that one would be the Ferrari F-40

Unarce: I never tried the 10k, now what difference will I see?

Just cause I like to see the actual color. I'm not a fan of the monochromatic blue lighting.

very nice


which LFS did you get them from?

the 10k lights are much brighter and whiter. i'm with Unarce i prefer 10k bulbs, i run 400W 10K XM's.

I bought them from Where's The Reef?" in Mississauga, Ontario.

The reason I'm using 400W 20k XMs is because my DT will be mainly SPS. I have 3 Lumen Max reflectors and will try the 10k in the middle where the Clams will be placed.

if you like the color your getting, there is no reason to switch. i just like the color of the 10K better.

Well, you'd probably get to see inside the holding cell at SFO :lol: Then you'd get the strip search.....Then a wonderfull fun filled adventure in the Federal Courts :lol:

After that, you get your passport flagged and will be searched every time you enter the US.
