Best MO supplier of clams...
 

Well I've been poking around, researching clams and I am wondering what the best source in Canada would be. Is there anyone who will let you see the exact clam you are buying? I am fairly picky, most clams I have seen in local stores are totally unimpressive in my opinion.

Quinn, you need to talk to Tim at Seacare. I think he'll be able to help you out. I hear Jayson has clams also, I've just never seen them.

Cool. I like those yellow Derasa's J&L has as well, I think I should stick to a Derasa since it's my first clam. I am still debating whether my tank is old enough to handle a clam...

teevee, you might want to check out Flame*Angel's tank:

She's got some good pictures of her clams which were purchased at SeaCare. They look awesome.

I don't think age is all that important. As long as it's stable, you should be fine.

Cool. My dad is on this clam kick, he asks me quite often when I will be getting one, so I told him if he paid, he could go ahead and get one. So we'll see. :cool:

Hey Quinn,
Jayson is great! He has sent my pic's by mail before I bought my first clam. Tim at seacare is supposed to be great as well.

I really want a clam too. MO is fine with these?

I got a couple from Jayson at SWC for FREE. You should call him! :wink:

(Actually it was on a trial basis, but I didn't pay for them, or keep them for that matter. But they did survive in my 90 and helped clear my green water.)

They were smaller Gold Maximas, and arrived in great shape. Jon got one of them.

Tim @ Seacare. I wanted them all but sadly I could only take one home. He had some of the most incredible croceas I've seen outside of books and the internet.

Christy :)

That annoying Lebowski character on RC is ranting and raving about his "teardrop" maxima. Has anyone ever seen one of these make it into Canada? They are really quite stunning.

Purchased three from SWC a couple of months ago they are doing great and look very good, maximas. Also purchased a Crocea from Wai's and it is also dong well.

:eek: You must have had to dig deep into your saving's to buy a clam from Wai's. :lol:

Your right not cheap... $100.00, SWC clams are way cheaper but also way smaller.

Just wondering who is Wai or Wei, what store is he from.

Wai's Aquarium or something, he's in Calgary on 16th ave./Highway 1 and 2nd St. NE. Across from the world-renowned (don't ask me why) Peter's Drive-In.

Thanks Teevee I'll have to check it out next time I'm that way

:mrgreen: :biggrin:

He probably has the largest selection in Calgary and chances are wont pay you the time of day till he figures that you will spend twice as much for something in his store than you could get MO :eek:

Cheers
