Holy Clams Batman - I'm in a real need for a couple of Tahitian Maximas, too bad there so difficult to bring in.

A local LFS brought in a shipment this past Thursday night/Friday morning. It was one of the best shipments I've seen in years. They had approx. 200 in the shipment and by the time I got there when the store opened; 30 had been sold within 5 mins, a select few reserved, and some were to be shared amongst other LFS.

There was still a good retail selection on Saturday and Sunday. A friend had asked me to drop by the store on Monday to select one for him and there were only a handful of each size remaining. They went fairly fast (I also posted this event on a local forum to let fellow hobbyists know).

That being said.....I wouldn't be surprised if some were to make their way out West....and East for that matter. I know some were reserved to be shipped out. I'm uncertain as to the specific details.

Enclosed are mobile phone pics (best I could do at the time) of the shipment sitting in various coral vats at the local store and at local wholesaler.









Apologies - I didn't want to ask the store for a pause in the powerhead/return pump (for a better pic) just in case it would introduce air bubbles into the system when power was restored.









Here are 2 small ones that friends asked me to pick out for them that day:

I totally misunderstood the title of this thread.

Very nice clams. For some reason mine seem to die after the 3 year mark. I've given up.

Would be nice to see some clams make a comeback at the stores.

Great looking clams, and wow that is one droolworthy shipment!

FWIW, Taipan I don't think that's a gigas. Looks like a really nice squamosa to me!
