^^^^^Yeah but...they are comming in cultured from the food trade. Might as well get one, let it get as big as you can grow it...then eat t and use the shells as dinner plates.

Is this the tank? If so, here is the biggest clam in that tank near the front of the glass.

i have one in my tank and it is about a foot long and getting bigger and I love it. you can not find then that big any more you can always get a bigger tank or rearrange the live rock in your current tank. but they are great clams. I have 9 clams in my 225 and a lot of them are getting big or are big and I still have a lot of room.
