Thought I'd show off some of my clams. Love these guys!!

I'll start off with a T. derasa that I no longer have. I had it for about 1 1/2 years before I felt it was outgrowing my tank. I re-homed it in a tank it'll never outgrow. It's now happy, well, as a clam, in a 2000 gallon system.

Here's my Blue/Green T. crocea. Since this pic, it's it a place of a little higher light and has really been growing well!!

My Purple T. crocea. I've had this one for a little over a year and it's growing very fast!!

Yeah, that lil' T. maxima is quickly becoming my favorite!!! Especially since I paid under $40.00!!! It's a lil' one, so I'm a little bit nervous. Still haven't started feeding any phyto, but am considering it. I do have some great quality phyto available and ready to go though!!

Excellent collection. Do I understand correctly that they're housed in a 2,000-gal. system? If so, that's impressive in its own right. Is there a thread somewhere about your system?

No that isn't correct. My tank is a 75 gallon. I had the T. derasa until it outgrew my tank. I then rehomed it with someone who has what's actually a 2500 gallon tank. As far as I know, there's no threads of this tank anywhere. If I find out differently, I'll post here about it.

Returnofsid please do not attempt to frag your clams with your new frag toy! Nice collection.
