O O'Dools New member Jan 7, 2003 #1 I would like opinions on my lighting, Intense enough for clams? I have 4 46.5" Icecap VHO (440 watts) on a 75 aga. My bulbs are 4" from the water surface and 20" to the bottom. My tank looks very bright. Please give me opinions I would love to have a clam.

O O'Dools New member Jan 7, 2003 #3 Peabody, thanks for the reply. Even though I did a search and found some info, I still like to here others opinions!

You MAY be able to keep squamosas or deresas (and gigas), but definitally not maxi's or croceas. I think most everyone on this board will have that same openion. Make sure you dose phyto! Good luck!:thumbsup: RE
