CJJon Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 You came to the right place! Nice looking clams, rock, and fish! First thing I would do is move the "anemone coral" away from those clams. Are the clams firmly attached to the rocks? If so, that is where they should stay--do not attempt to remove them. Also, keeping two clams in such a small tank takes some skill. Also, clams can be hard to keep in a new tank. Typically an established tank is better, one that is nice and stable. You will need to watch your calcium and alkalinity and keep them up. Ca at 420 and Alk between 8-12, Mg 1350. These levels may be higher than your NSW. I have no idea what the light is you have. Clams need very intense lighting. It may not be adequate. I would suggest doing as much research as you can--read everything you can about clams and anemones. Search here for member ZephNYC. He is the authority on clams around here.
