How long do you expect to keep them in the 10 gal? I thought these got to be the biggest of the kept clams. Do they just grow slower then the others for a longer time? I seen one at a LFS that looked great , but I didn't get it for the size issue.

i think gigas are the biggest

as for growth it doent seem to fast im sure ill be able to keep them in the tank for atleast another year maybe 2 before i need to upgrade(then im thinking of a 75g)
