I wanted to add an anemone for my clowns, and dreaming about a clam addition.. should be ok right??


you can add candys no problems, same with clams provided your tank can maintain them. nems and sps are a hard mix as nems walk and sting sps still though lots of people with nems and sps so youll be fine
