I'm really excited about buying my first-ever clam.... I'll be buying from JP, so I narrowed it down to two crocea clams on his website. Please give me your opinions and vote for which one you like better. I'm torn between the two! Thanks! :D

Both are nice, but I think I like #2 just a tad better. Let us know which one you get and good luck!:)

They look much better in person!! GO there, see them, then decide ;)

Plus i'm sure you'll get more confused with the one's he has in his shop compared to the ones put up on his website :D. I was there last week and was just itching to pick up a squamosa. They're both beautiful !

Ok the poll is over. He has decided he is taking the gigas pictured below. Those croceas and squamosas next to it are 4-5 inches.

Whadda guy!

LOL! There's no way I have room for that! :p

Okay, I didn't get either one! I checked out what JP had and, I must say, the pictures on the website do not do the clams justice. I got this nice ~3" electric crocea:

Brad, I think you should have gotten the gigas. It would have fit perfectly in your 15 G tank. You would even have a couple of ounces of water left over after you put the clam in.

But, in light of your purchase, I think the one you got is quite nice.
