HI Christy,

Some maxima/crocea tend to have a bigger opening IMO. I just bought a clam today and noticed some of them in the storre where gaping as well. They all looked fine and have been in the store tank for awhile with little change, but defenately keep an eye on it.

Cheers.

Your gaping clam should learn some restraint. I don't know much about clams other then they're tastey. It does look rather neat though.I Hope if there is something wrong it will work itself out.

Cheers.

my clam did that for the first week or two .closed some after that and has been fine since , that was 8 month ago . could be stress from the move .
also ,if your clams not happy where it's sitting , it will move on it's own to a better spot .

That clam looks great!

Clams are like spark plugs. They all run best at a differant gap.

clam sure does have some sick colours. mantle doesn't appear to be fully extended though??? could just be the shot.
