Talking Show off all your clams! Deresa, Gigas, Maxima's, Croceas!

When I started the Maxima thread a while ago, I was disappointed that I didn't ask to see all your clams. I love Croceas, Gigas, all of them! So here I go again....lets see them. Thank you and please forgive me for not posting correctly the first time.

Wow checkinhawk, nice selection

I just ordered a crocea.
This will be my first clam. He's going in my 60 long, under a 150watt HQI.
It should be here next wednesday or thursday, due to labor day.

Its the middle one.
