That's an awesome clam. I'm glad you still have it. You don't see too many with that pattern around.

Here's a couple of pics of the squammy





... and, because it's an SPS forum, here's a pic of the prostrata back in my 75g before I moved it, it was really beautiful at that time. There is sooo much flow in the current loacation in my 120 that the main colony has grown very thick, stumpy branches seen in the pic above. Some of the mini colonies that fragged off of it are in less flow are growing more like the original colony.

400 w SE 15K XM in Lumenarc minis with T-5 supplementation.

It was oringianlly under 175 10 K Ushios in the old 75g. It likes the 400 wattage much better and the blue tips pop in the 15K too.
