[CKreef]

my crocea always seems to be expanded way out. you can see it just moving with the current. is something wrong with it?

sorry i cant 175 w 10k mh 96 w pc its just the mantle extending way out. it looks healthy . i just wondered if it should do this? the clam is about 3.5 inches long and the mantle extends out on the sides about 2.5 inches from the shell any ideas?

Croceas do have the largest mantles when compared to the over size of a clam. but it sounds like it needs more light. why dont you slowly move it up higher in the rocks.

its way up there and bulbs are almost new

do you have any pics of how they should look with the mantle extended?
