Tridacnid's.....My new addiction

[mnellis3023]

Hey guys,
I got my first Maxima nearly 4 months ago, and new I had to get more!
Recently I picked up my 2nd Maxima, which is a Ultra Grade. Today I snagged my first Derasa clam


Just thought I would share a few crappy pics with you all.

Love the Maximas and derasa

Those maximas are fantastic!

Can you post where you got those beautiful clams from???

 

[mnellis3023]

All 3 are from LFS......the The Blue Maxima, and the Derasa Clam are ORA Clams, and the Ultra Grade Maxima is from a unknown suplier.

Beautiful! What kind of lights do you have them under?

 

[mnellis3023]

Thanks guys.
These are in my 58g tank that I built, and are under a 250w DE Phoenix 14k.

Here is a not so current picture of the 58g....trying to get a mixed front/top pic

Lovely clams. Cams are my old (and on going) addiction.

[Cracken]

where does one purchase a Zebra?

 

[OrionN]

The Zebra Maxima I got from a LFS, Aquarium Masters. here in Corpus Christi. I think it was farm raised and sell through ORA. The Crocea I had for 4 years. I got him when he was just 1 inch now about 4 inches.
For clams, beauty in in the eye of the beholder. I just got lucky to see and able to pick one that I like.
