i thought it would be better to explain this once here rather than reply to your pm.


due to an act of god ( lightning ) i have had to rip the rear wall off my house and excavate the foundation. the bad news is i had to move all my tanks ( not to mention all other worldly possessions as the rear wall was going to be open for a week or so ( yeah right, it's been raining non stop and delaying everything, not to mention i live in canada and it gets cold at night )

to make a long story short all my clams are / were at the LFS ( nems went here , fish there and live rock somewhere else... ). after only a few days offers started coming in for the 2 larger clams, then a bidding war started. i still have a few of the smaller ones but it is probably gonna be a while before i can set up my clam tank again. i have to set up my fish / nem tank first to get them out of friends and customers systems. with the fish from my reef tank and the fish from my FOWLR and my nems, i wouldn't be able to keep a calm in there.


i'm hoping to finish the last coat of plaster tonight, work tomorrow then prime at night. a couple of quick coats of paint on sunday and i'm off to the races. then possible tank cycle....... oh boy here we go again.


sorry the length of the post but believe me this is the condensed version.

[skinz78]

ok twenty your are off the hook for now, but we expect pic's when you get the tanks back up and going.

BUT.....

for some wierd reason we still need jmaneypanda, and jetcat USA. I know you two know about this post.

will do, i did take a bunch of pics a week or so before but they are on my computer ( i've been on my lap top for a couple of weeks ) and it got fried with a lot of other electronic equipment. i am hoping it is just the powers supply but just packed it up with the rest and will worry about it later.

sorry for the hijack, now back to our regularly scheduled program.

[skinz78]

Unarce pmed me last week and said he was going to post some pic's. So I am just wondering if he forgot?

jmaneypanda, and jetcat USA. I know you are out there and you have to have seen this or heard about it? Do you two have clams still?

And to anyone else who has some pretty awesome clams, Please post them too.

[ezcompany]

there's one owner over at manhattan reefs that has a stupendous amount of seriously nice clams. clam crazy i think

[seapug]

Awesome photos, everyone. I have a few clams but seeing pics like these makes me want to dump all my corals and go 100% clams.

[skinz78]

ez, I have pm'ed clamcrazy, thanks for mentioning him . I saw some pic's of his clams and if he posts we are in for a treat. He is now on the list

[skinz78]

charlie, you mentioned you were going to post more pic's soon? Did you get pic's of the 5 maxima's you purchased? I was too late and they all sold out.

Also you mentioned a guy in texas and someone named red teardrop? I couldn't find them, can you be more specific on them?

[capefear]

just wanted to respond to your pm skinz, pain in the butt for me to post pics here, i have a few pics up in my gallery over on MH. that would be me clam crazy, when i get some time i will post pics of the 2 maximas i just got that are off the chart.

[ezcompany]

good to see you here buddy

[InsaneClownFish]

Gorgeous clams people! Keep 'em comin!

[skinz78]

Unarce pmed me 2 weeks ago and said he was going to post some pic's. So I am just wondering if he forgot?

jmaneypanda, and jetcat USA. I know you are out there and you have to have seen this or heard about it? Do you two have clams still? Its odd you two haven't even been posting in the clam fourum since the beginning of this post. Does anyone know how to contact them and let them know this is waiting for them.

And to anyone else who has some pretty awesome clams, Please post them too.

[Texsun]

A couple more in the collection. Colors are off but you get the idea...

[epicfish]

Wow. I want a clam tank now!

[ViPeR_930]

Texsun, did you recently get that maxima in the middle from Serdar?
