Ok, this is my new clam addition to my tank, baby ultra blue maxima! Picture taken while being inspection for pest/parasite under real sun light :) very healthy and open up during drip acclimation too :) just a bit shy away when its on camera LOL

What's next? I pretty much needed a bigger tank to stock more CLAMS...........hehehe

THAT is one of the reasons I got into reef keeping.

Beautiful clam. I hope I can find one like that and keep it alive.

Does your LFS ship? We don’t get a lot of choices here in Utah.

TBH, I don't know. You can call them @ (714) 842-2733 and ask them but their stock is limited since they are not a distribute whole seller.

I'm freaking love this Kole Tang, it's in my tank like it was in its own old home, cruising around perking on rocks, clam shells. I hope its peaceful out going behave will bring out my purple firefish, this one so skittish and always hide within rock work for months already.
