Mostly becasue at this point i dont know where i want them... also i think i have sufficent lighting to keep sps at the bottom of my tank and when i get around to try i dont want the zoas taking over....

Who Doesnt like a nice clam??????????
 
well i have been wanting to try clams for a while now but i have never really had the lighting for it.. Now i do so i broke down and bought a couple at red coral today.... i picked up a durasa and a hippo clam... well here is hoping that niether of my angels are nippers... who know i have never had a chance to view my angels around clams. i have been policing since they went in ..

HERES HOPING THEY WONT GET EATEN..

Oh and i will try and pics when i can....

Any pics that are not just actinic? Kinda hides the actual colors of the clam... hard to see.

thats all lighting i have just 2 14 k 250w mh... its hard to get the white balance adjusted properly... its funny because the tank actually looks no where near that blue in person...

Nice clams, been thinking about adding a clam to my tank too. I had one a long time ago but my CBB liked the taste of it :sad:

Well its been a while since my last post and i actually have something to add....

while nothing has changed in the way my tank looks, my clown fish for the first time since i got them (they were the first sw fish i bought) have started to lay eggs... they have gone thru 2 clutches in the last 5 weeks... they lay eggs, they hatch, get eaten, they lay more eggs..

ElGuappo 07-01-2011 11:09 PM

thinking of selling this tank now... i just dont have the devotion any more... going to set up something a little smaller and more to my own design....


found one off my flame was dead after carpet surfing the other day and well its kinda the last straw.....

Carmen 07-02-2011 12:30 AM

Are you copying me?!
Sorry tO hear Mikey! Well I couldn't get right out either. Had to set up a nano just to cope with withdrawal.
Bummer about the flame!!!:sad:
