Hello everyone! I'm wanting to get a maxima or a squamosa clam but wondering if my lighting will be sufficient. I'm currently running 2 REEF Breeder NANO LEDs on a 40g breeder.
Thanks for any advice in advance.

The only real way to know is if you can get your hands on a par meter, otherwise its just a guess. If you have some sps corals, then maybe the lights are sufficient. With that said, they are "nano" lights, and clams require very strong lighting.
