so I got two clams one from Algea barn and one from Pacific east they are both amazing!! props out to both those guys for a nice healthy clams. they are so healthy they have attached themselves overnight which I have never had happened I guess I’ve never had a super healthy clam. Personally I don’t like the direction they’re facing since they have attached I would rather be able to see them more but the health of the claim is more important. My question is is it best to leave it alone let it do it’s thing once it’s attached and not risk hurting them? I apologize it is real hard to get good pictures of them and I was feeling lazy and did not want to turn off my return pump and take a picture from the top Thanks guys. Let me also say how crazy are clams! One Direction there a solid blue, look at them from the top they are the brightest turquoise I’ve ever seen simply stunning

I'd leave them alone, clams will always face the way they want in an aquarium. IMO you'll cause stress to the clam by constant moving. Congrats, they look great.

Thanks for that! I am blown away with these guys, I have had several derasa over the years and they where awesome but these maximas are something else. I want to do an official review of the sellers but gonna wait a week to make sure they are as healthy as they look.
