Got a pic?
Some gold maximas look a lot like B&Ws when they are young. Their gold colour develops as the clam grows. I've been unsuccessfully looking for a true B&W maxima in Canada for years now. If it is in fact a true B&W maxima then this is big news (at least for me).

Well it is now later
 . They are small probably toonie sized. I am sure hoping he turns out to be back and white not gold. Cause for his price i thought he was gold  .  It is hard to tell but in person he is a lot blacker looking.

You may notice mantle is nipped on the yellow tang in the store was picking on him. Seems to have had no ill effect.

I've only owned 4 clams...One lasted 13+ years, another 4 years, one only 2 months and the last is still going at 4 years. I've never fed them specifically. I don't know what I could conclude from that...

I now have 12 never fed one ever. I was just told from the size of these ones that it would be recommended. I will see how it plays out.
