nice tank, thatis definatly the 1.6 gallon version because my .75 only has room for 1 filter with about an inch of room left to the sides of the tank. the tank looks really good tho. its a simple setup and very natural looking.

We had it the nano for about 3 months. When it got over 2in we moved it to the 100g. (It was already about 1 1/2in when we bought it and it grew fast). When I would do my weekly water changes I would drip out the old water and drip in the new water simultaneously. I would put the clam in the bowl I was dripping water into and then put phyto in with it. (once a week) It would literally clean the water. I also dropped phyto in about twice a week.

Yeah, that's way to much work for me.
I did not think that it would grow that quickly. Good thing you have the big sps tank read for him. It must be really cool to move the clam from the "Nursery" to the big kids room.

I checked out your 37 gallon reef on your site, and found it absolutely amazing. The lion's are quite the lookers'. I'm curious about how much 1.5" clams cost? Just to make sure I don't get ripped of, before I get one.

Two Little Fishies makes Phosban. I've never used it so I can't comment on it's performance.
