I got this clam from a local reefer for $20 canadian two months ago. It was kind of brown when i first got it but recently has slowly had brighten up a little bit. He had it on the sand bed in a regular 30g tank under a single 400w 20k mh and it was brown ??? It's currently up high in my 90g under 2x250w 10k reeflux and 2x110w super vho. I dose DT twice weekly. He told me it was a tear drop maxima but i forgot to ask what original colour it was. Can you guys tell from the pix if it's gold or blue teardrop maxima ?

thanks.

can you get a top down shot?

i wish more people would read this when they say clams are fine under 20k lighting. this is a perfect example of how 20k is not very good for clams.
