First off, how much lighting on what size+depth tank?

[strider]

its in a 90gl 24" deep im using an aqua medic 150T, ive got a crushed coral substrate, 41kg LR, 2x percs, 1 x flame, a kole tang and a scooter blenny and a mixed cleanup crew of hermits, snails and shrimps.
All levels are spot on SG 26

Not vouching for the website but they do have some nice pictures - www.clamsdirect.com.

I personally love the Crocea. They do like intense lighting though.

There's a clam forum here on RC. I think some research there would pay off well.

i love the look of derasa clams but my fav. is A hybrid cross of T. squamosa and T. Maxima i saw in Julian Sprung's Invertebrates A quick reference guide.

According to his bio, this fellow, "Strider", says he started on 10/24/05. Isn't it a little early, like maybe a year, to be looking for a clam? Everything I've been reading on RC suggests waiting at least a year. If that isn't the case, I apologize for my 2 cents worth.
