went to my lfs today to have a look, and in one of the tanks there was a rock with just the mantle of a crocea clam comming out of the rock you could not see the shell of the clam at all it was completly encrusted by the rock. i walked to barry, he told my that this was rare to find at a lfs but that is how they are found in the wild. just wanted to share.

lol LFS prices ARE high unless you know somebody that works there and gets Discounts!. But also i like to support my LFS everyonce and awhile, because well.... they are the local fish store lol if it wasnt for them i would have to get everything online and that kinda sucks sometimes.

I saw several at a local store - I don't think they are chipping off chunks of rock, looks like the rock is man made formed around the clam. I could be wrong, just the impression that I got after looking at a few of them closely.

I was diving in Bora Bora a few months ago and can attest that ALL the maximas were bored into the rocks. Not a single one was in the open....and there were many thousands of them. I took a few pics of them....

Not so in many other places. I've found lots of maximas in Indonesia that were sitting on hard bottom, not dug in at all.
