30 days later...

Yuki Rihwa · Oct 29, 2017

I just skimmed through my photo folder and I was shocked how different of my clam pretty much after 30 days.
This picture took after its in my tank for few days.

and today...pretty much 30 days later!

Look at how thick the mantle and the folding muck larger too, its totally a transformation

Clam in Oyster shell hehehe
The oyster shell told the clam "you're in my hand"

This clam growing a new set of scute under it mantle, I'm happy that I knew it healthy and I'm having an idea environment for them to stay healthy and grow

Also, the baby gold maxima its scute grew so big and seem like its won't able to complete close its shell anymore.

I'm just using old thread to show some updates of my gold maximas, 2 months later....
I bought them on Oct 10th, 2017 (showing the progression of the top one in picture below)

And 2 months later, I'm not showing its mantle but the growth rate of the top gold maxima....dang way too fast!

The biggest new scutes over half inch, other part of the new grow at least 1/4 inch and it's now much bugger than the bottom one in the 1st picture.
The bottom gold maxi barely growing any new shell, it's just darn tiny grow compare to the top maxi. All other baby maxi showing new shell but not crazy like this one LOL.
Since the scute grew darn huge the mantle grow much larger to cover entire scutes
