I haven't posted tank pics in forever. My tank is currently dominated by a large gigas clam, three anemones, a few LPS, and a handful of acros. It was an acro-dominated tank at one time.

Very nice jeff, probably the last giggas in the area.

 

[GrizFyrFyter]

That clam would give me nightmares. You could probably bury your arm in the thing!

 

[DrDNA]

Thanks guys! I've had that gigas since 2007. It has survived a lot of stupid things I have done . The clam is the one thing I worry about the most since they are no longer available.

 

[DrDNA]

The clam makes it more challenging to grow SPS since it competes for calcium and alk.

 

[toofrigginswt]

Holy cow... I thought that was a huge monti cap but it's actually a clam! lol.

 

[GrizFyrFyter]

Why are they no longer available? (I'm new)

 

[Jet Black]

They are endangered in the wild and extinct in most areas.

 

[GrizFyrFyter]

Wow. I wonder if anyone has successfully bred them in captivity.

 

[Saltwaternooby]

Endangered because people ate them/ wanted the large shell.

 

[mpoletti]

Great Stuff Jeff. Have you ever thought of donating that massive clam to CAS one day?

 

[DrDNA]

Actually, that has crossed my mind... If, or when, I do need to part with it, my first call is going to be to the CAS. If they turn me down, then probably Monterey Bay Aquarium....

[ReefGoatfish]

hey all , at the last meeting there was talk of taking pics of your tank and tank support, is that the virtual tank tour at the next meeting?? I missed what they were saying, what was it exactly and is it something for all to do? fun last meeting , lots of good info, and the coral game was fun too,

 

[Saltwaternooby]

I will be starting a thread shortly, but we are going to make a picture meeting of different setups.

 

[Borchers]

Tank Tour!!! It's that time of year!

 

[GrizFyrFyter]

New fts. Forgive the cloudy water (amphipod explosion and clogged filter socks) and the mismatched bulbs.

 

[Borchers]

Here's mine after the move!
