how tall is the tank? now that you have said you want to keep clams I will recommend MH lighting but the high of your tank will determine how big of a bulb you need to go.

making an assumption of an 18" hight I would recommend one 250 watt MH. your choice of weather you go with a pulse start or a HQI type ballast (I lean toward the HQI ballasts myself)
