"lame" would be a good term in relation to both his comments and his tank... Link to comment

DPRoberts Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Tridacna clams are also filter feeders and constantly filter the water for small particulates. Derasa Clams larger than 2" do not require supplemental feedings, but smaller T. derasa that are less than 2" should be fed a phytoplankton or greenwater supplement several times per week if maintained in a nutrient poor reef aquarium. Tridacna derasa are the hardiest and most adaptable of all the Tridacna spp., and require moderate to intense lighting and good water flow in the home aquarium. Proper water chemistry is very important, and they will thrive when calcium levels of 380- 450 mg/L, alkalinity level of 8-11 dKH, and magnesium level of 1280-1350 ppm are maintained. Drs.

jbfrompa Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 ...don't show ur clam any mollusk porn, or it will spawn and kill ur whole tank... So funny yet so true. If you get a clam make sure you have a skimmer espically in a smaller tank. It can crash your tank when it goes sexual and takes all the O2 out of the water. That is why a skimmer can help or give you time to do a large wc to lessen the effects. CLAM SEX KILLS. Link to comment
