Enough light????

[salt newbie01]

I would really like to get a clam. I currently have a 75 gallon with 440 watts of vho lighting. I would like a clam that could be placed on rock work maybe half way up. Could my lighting support a clam?? And what kind would be best?

Thanks in advance,

with that lighting you could have Derasa, Squamosa and gold Maxima. you might be able to keep a colored maxima up very high on the rocks.

Thanks guys - It will be a little while yet, I am starting to do some research. They are such beautiful creatures.
