Hi Doug,
I have 3x 250W MH and 4 T5 Maristar and it is 11 inch from the water line. My tank is 24 inch deep, barebottom.
How long does it take for clam to stick to the rock? The hippo clam keep turning, so i will try to move it to different spot. Right now it is at the bottom of the tank. Should i move it up a little bit?
