OA had some clams come in from Sri Lanka I believe, or at least hat was wendells expectation last time I was in last weekend.

These are likely NOT aquacultred.

Also, a simpler way to encourage a clam to attach to your rock work is to buld a temporary support out of extra live rock for a couple of weeks, then take the rocks down, put them back in your sump and presto...clam right where you want it.


Have used this method 4 times in the past, all with success.

Ok, I've placed a little shell under him. If he hasn't attached to that in a couple weeks I'll pickup some putty next time I'm at J&L.
