NEW to Clams

[DouglasTiede]

Am I allowed to ask a newbie question on this forum,
I have been reef keeping for some years now.
However when it comes to clams I have had mine for about 1 week now.
Are there some good links for learning about clams?

I have mine in my 75g reef with no hostial fish, mostly corals.
it is on the bottom on the sand bed which is about 2" deep.
Right up front and away from the corals by at least 6 inches.

I have a 250wMH and 2 96w compacts

water params are A OK.

P.S. are the cleaner clams aka manilla clams worth getting for a fuge? ( I know they need some good lighting )
