I live in Cleveland OH. None of the reef stores around here seem to have clams for sale except for a few giant ones. Can any suggest a good place to buy one online? Looking for a derassa for my 40b that is 10months old and under maxspect razors

if you can drive or want to call matt bennet of Matts corals in columbus ohio he has a ton of maxima but also had some derassa

This was my favorite Derassa he had. It was only about 3 inchs

pacific east aquaculture has clams, mostly maxima though. ORA cultures derasa clams, best option is to see if your LFS will order them in for you.

Tidal Gardens has a couple Deresas currently available. DrGibby's recommendation is spot on though. That's where I'll be going and I'm up your way (Akron) so the trip is 100% worth it.

+1 to pacific east. I got mine there, beautiful clams and top notch service. Are you dosing CA and ALK? able to keep nitrates and other nutrients up?

I won't deal with Pacific East, been there a couple times now and they have a VERY elitist attitude and was very put off by them. Several stores locally wanted to order from them as well as far as clams go and Dr. Mac had a very piss poor attitude towards them.

This does not sound like right. Not our style at all. If you had a bad experience I welcome you or these store owners to call to discuss. We sell to many stores actually so this does not jive with our experiences.

Pacific east aquaculture is the best imo for online shopping in this dept! I bought a maxima from them and let them pick it out to save a few bucks. Couldn't have asked for a better clam. The problem you have when you are upset with someone is not with them but actually resides in you. You might want to check that before you miss out.

Killing me! My 4mo old tank is not ready for a clam! Any chance you guys will be bringing in any of the big wild maxima's! The last one I got was over 6"
