New Clammy Photo


Ok.. here's our first clam. What is it and how does he look? He's in our NanoCube up very high in the water due to the lack of MH lights. And he's usually open up much more than this.

4-5 inches. He is usually open way more than what he is in that photo. Is there such thing as being too open?

So far our clam seems to be happy. It's very respondant to anything moving over him like our hand and is fairly quick to reopen once he's been tucked away. There's a short spine urchin, 3 pepermint shrimp a Royal Gramma and 4 turbo snails in our 24 gallon Nano Cube Deluxe. What else would go nicely (but yet forgiving and affordable) in the way of corals etc?
