Clam help again!

Hey guys, havn't been here for a while( well seems like it)

 

Anyways, how do you tell how big the clam is, I mean, how do you measure it. From the begining of the mantle to the end.

 

Is it just a straight line measured or measured from one end to the other with the curve the clam is shaped. Sorry if this is confusing,

 

The clam that I got claimed to be 2.5 inches, but when I measured the clam from one end to the next exactly atop the mantle, it was 3 inches.

 

The clam seems to be getting enough food, It starts to close a little at the end of the day, I'm guessing because it's gotten enough food.

 

What do you guys think?!

thanks guys,

 

The clam seems to be feeding well off the light, it closes up at around the 11 hour mark ( I usually keep them on 12 hours because of school and work)

 

Thanks guys!

lighting isnt that much of a problem. maintaining your calc and alk is a pain if you dont have a calc reactor. you should focus on that. the best way to check how a clam is doing is by its photo-sensitivity.
