I have a ten LED dig build over my ten gallon. The kit is from aquastyles and puts out 3w per led.
could I keep clams with this lighting?

I have some really encouraging pictures to show . Mind you I am using 4$ ebay LED bulbs. not expensive cree bulbs.
Super encouraging is the growth of my crocea clam. I brought this home Valentines day 2011 (this is one month growth.
so feb 14th-march 20th growth
I love tracking the growth on these. A few members of a NH club that i run have been switching to these led and noticing awesome growth as well.
my tank (55g) has a total of 66w of led. so chances are the section this clam lives in only has about 10w visible to it.. and its halfway down in the tank... (about 14")
$5-7 per bulb..
just started a discussion on it here :

I'm a bit confused...ur clam's stretching out? That means there is not enough light...... It should be open not stretching. You look at the ridges for growth.
the bracket is showing new ridge growth i'll take a new picture today.
there are probably 12-13 new ridges since this picture was taken.. if not more
