Lets see those CLAM photos! Clams that you have, had, or even photographed.

The Deresa is beautiful, I’m curious where you plan to house it, do you plan to keep it towards the bottom of the tank or at the top?

The bottom will be it's home for the time being.

Had this one about 4 or 5 years it was really small when I got it.

 

[i cant think]

The Maxima is out completely now! I cant get a photo catching this guys mantle to what I see it. I have this guy under rather heavy blues yet he still looks so good.

And my Deresa is still growing nicely. Got him in March at I think 2 inches, he’s got to be 3-4 inches across now.

That looks beautiful, can’t wait to see what it’ll look like once it grows.
I assume it’s a T. maxima?

Yes a maxima. I converted the middle section of my sump as a clam lagoon with rock, sand, and a pair of mangroves. There are 2 other maximas at the lfs that have been there a few months. I may have to grab those if I don't find a green maxima.

I went back to the lfs for the Christmas sale and the remaining maxima looked lonely. I couldn't let that continue.

Saltwater Aquarium has some.
I have moved that torch three times already and he keeps going back to him. I think he wants the rock it's on! Lol

Be careful - they grow fast once they’re happy!

it’s not even the length that worries me, it’s the width he is gaining. But for now he’s a nice clam and his size is for the future
