These are two of my six croceas. I just bought a new camera and am trying to get used to it. I will try to post the other four if I can ever get decent photos. The first has a lawn mower blenny in it also:

Sweet clams but defiantly kill those majano behind them before you have a few million of them in your tank.

thanks. bought yours from miguel too? i told him how i was kicking myself for missing out on that one leopard spotted maxima he had about two weeks ago.

i saw that exact clam you bought last week when i asked if he had any other maximas. looks way better than the picture he showed me!

Ok I think I finally figured this picture thing out. I took some pic's tonite, I am a horrible photographer though so be kind These are only a few of my clams. I had a fish that took a likeing to the taste of squamosa mantle, you'll see in the pics. The fish is gone now and they are healing nicely.

4" squamosa

7" squamosa

3" maxima

2" maxima

And my Gigas, and for some reason this pic turned out ok. I purchased him at 1.5" and was told it was a derasa. 8 months later I just purchased a derasa and put them side by side in the tank and noticed the intake siphon was different on them. Neadless to say I then realized my now 5" clam was a gigas

Yup, I briefly thought about picking yours up as well, but already spent my entire coral budget for the year on the teardrop.

I'll have to take some better pics as it's a nice blue with golden highlights. Feel very fortunate about finding it, as ones this size are probably as rare as b/w zebras.
