We started this tank 7 months ago after having two established tanks given to us. I’m slowly starting to glue things down so if you have any suggestions please let me know ☺️

Hello all, I’ve had a maxima clam for approx. one month now. It’s been doing well. It extends its mantle and reacts to light. It attached itself to a rock after 2 days of introducing it to my tank. About two weeks ago, I added a second AI bar. This being a Glow light (to enhance coral...

Hello, I have a very beautiful Maxima Clam which I’ve kept since, 10/18/20 and have never seen one comparable. I’d love to have a little more insight if any clam guru would like to chime in and potentially tell me what this variant would be if any. The photo below was taken 08/23/21. I’m away...

So today when I was cleaning my tank, I noticed something "different" inside my new maxima clam.... My new clam is mostly blue/teal and I noticed some yellows inside the intake siphon. I have a striped blenny and at first I panicked thinking my blenny barged his way inside... I got out my top...

I just got an ultra-grade maxima clam yesterday, and it acclimated well, opening and everything last night. Then I came down to my tank today, and there was no clam left, just the shell. I didn't have any fish that would eat it that I looked at online. The parameters are good, the nitrate is a...

Looking for somewhere to get a 4"+ inch clam. Would prefer a derasa or maxima clam. I live near Houston Texas, but I am up for getting one shipped out to me.

Hello, I added mussels to my aquarium for the first time. This is its second day and it is responding to the reactions. He looks good except for his mouth. Is this much mouth opening normal? Also in local lfs it said maxima but I think it's crocea. Can someone with knowledge about mussels help?

Hello, all! I have a black and white maxima clam, about 2.5" that I have had for about two months. I started her out in the sand to acclimate in lower light, she stayed there for about a month seemingly happy and opening appropriately. I took her from the sand (blue circle) and placed her on...

The packaging wasn’t the best treated. Half water missing and the clam in 2 pieces. I’m thinking I have 2 as it’s my 1st clam experience. A maxima. I’ve taken it out & underneath it is a huge empty hole, I also copped a spray. Very gross. I’ve examined the rock piece and the other part of his...

We have a large blue maxima clam that has been growing and doing great for about 6 months now. A couple days ago, we noticed that its flesh has taken on a sort of "cloudy" tint, that ends abruptly, in a pretty straight line. The clam is still opening well, etc, but this discoloration hasn't...

I just recently bought a maxima clam and I heard that after you put them on the rock, you can’t remove it. I heard that it will damage the foot. Is this true? If it is, I also heard that you can buy a “hammock” for it to attach to so you can move it later on. I wanna be able to move it since I...

Hello, I purchased Maxima Clam about 3 weeks ago, and noticed that it's mantle has become flaky and cracked, like asphalt that was heavily salted in the winter (It's more clear when you zoom in on the picture). It's receiving about 150 PAR and has low to moderate flow. Alkalinity is at 8.2...

Does anyone know what this slug looking red spec is. Just pulled it off my recently introduced Maxima clam shell. Little horns or eyes poking out from its head. Thanks everyone!

For the vast majority of reef aquarists, it is Tridacna maxima (what we more commonly call Maxima Clams) that come to mind whenever clams are brought up. These gorgeous clams are popular all around the world, both as a stunning jewel in one's aquarium and in many places, as a delicacy! In the...

Hi there! I just purchased a Pink Leather Toadstool and sits next to my Blue Maxima... well Did! I noticed the Pink TS tried to constantly touch the Maixma and even did research to find out TS can be aggressive. I do not want the new TS to hurt the Clam is all. I already moved my Anemone...

Hi there! I have had our Blue Max for a little over 2 months now. It has been a sand dweller since at the LFS. I installed a Shelf Rock for the clam to be elevated to our light. As I go to raise it, The clam begins to have these brown bubbles on the outer shell. It has good growth (Inner Pearl...

Hi everyone, I am new to the reef2reef forum and also reef tank. Recently I bought a maxima clam. But sooner or later, I found the phosphate level is too high (>2ppm), which kills the Duncan and hammer coral inside. I used phosphate removal to reduce the phosphate down to 0.25. My clam still...

For those that have clams, where did you get it from? Pacific East Aquaculture, Clam Mania, or an LFS?

Just figured I would throw this funny picture out there, there is a pistol shrimp on the other side of my tank that this guy bonded with, then peaced out ✌️ because the den was too small. Ever since then he has paired with this clam. He Hangs out on it all day, and defends when fish come close...
