I have a 48" TEK T-5 light fixture with 6 54 watt High out put bulbs over my 75 gallon reef, I was wondering what I could have that would do awsome on the sand. Are there any clams that will actually burry there bodiesand just expose there mantal? I want to get a clam, but I had a crocea that was doing awsome for a few weeks and then it kicked the bucket, I have all my parameters where they need to be, and I cant figure out for the life of me why it died. Its frustrating.
Which clams are easiest to keep
- Thread starter pondy
- Start date
Awsome, I dont have pictures of hte clam before it died but I am doing alot of research tonight, I work nights and so I have some free time all nightlong. The tank has been up and running at my place for around 7 months and it was an existing system that i bought. The water parameters are
ammonia 0
trates 0
trites0
calcium is 460 (a bit higher then I like)
dkh 9
ph 8.2
What other parameters would you like:? I dont have a mag test. I dose a two part solution. I did have a cleaner shrimp that was picking on it, but i think that it had already started to kick the bucket. could the cleaner shrimp have killed it?

Chris, you have some GORGEOUS clams!
I have the 6 X 54Watts T5s as well. Could you please tell me where in your tank you keep the clams and what bulb combo you are using?Thanks so much.
