Nano Clam?


Under right conditions, is it alright for a Clam to be in a nano tank. Also, is it a MUST to have MH lighting on a clam?

Both of these clams have literly out growen my 15 gallon tank, they grow like crazy under 2*55W PC. Derassa and Gigas are the only two that I know of that do good under PC's but they need strong PC light and they will get VERY big VERY fast so be prepaired to trade them in at one point.

HTH,

T. deresa, gigas, and squamosa are all lower light clams, but can grow very large 12"+; anything else absolutely require MH to thrive.

Nice clams whiskey.
