I am finally starting to understand people like Catherine and Tony who are clam addicted. The color of a coral is pretty much written in stone. A green digitata is a green digitata(with some slight variance due to tank conditions). Clams on the other hand are every bit as colorful as coral, but are infinitely different in their patterning. I tried a couple clams once before and both died within a couple months. Too soon in the tanks life for clams methinks. So I got discouraged on keeping clams for a while which proved to be a good thing as the tank matured to the point that it could sustain clams. Ive had four ( 2 maximas and 2 croceas) in the tank for a few months now and all appear to be doing well and showing new growth. A couple weeks ago I added another crocea and now RC just got in some small derasas(4"). These two will bring my total up to seven. At what point do I join the clamaddicts club? Keep in mind that they were in a shipping container less then 24hrs ago. I hope they will darken up some.

yah whats with RC pulling in all this stock. Dont you guys know my tanks not ready for anything. Nor will it be . They look good Doug, again just another beautiful addition to an already stunning tank. Its near impossible to recreate the stunning scenery that we see in day to day life (not so day to day in our case (Ocean wise)) but you have done a bang up job. Tip of the hat

Side note I am pumped that I managed a bracket in a bracket statement, and better yet I found a yellow smiley face tipping its hat.

^^^^^^^^------------ This guy is on fire

Thanks for the kind words Tyson....the tank still has a ways to go IMHO....amazing what you can find when you scroll way down on the smiley page.

Josh decided to sell his small crocea and I managed to beat the other contestants to the buzzer and picked it up last night. I will clean the glass tonight and snap a couple shots.

First pic is my green crocea and the blue one is the newbie from Josh. I thought they were pretty close to the same color but... I placed them side by side so you can see bits of each in each shot.
