SerenityReef Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 You always threaten me for pics! So beware...I'm in Boston so I can swing by, nab, and fly before you notice anything out of your over flowing tank! Quote Link to comment

kgoldy Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I should have figured that would happen... Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 You guys! I have 3 words for you: TYREE SPACE MONSTERS! It took me 2 hours to acclimate everything. And I just finished a 2 hour glue-down and re-arranging of stuff. Acros are pissed off, some polyps are pissed off, it's a lot going on. Here's one pic to tide you ovah. Online. IRL. Even with a crappy cell phone pic, this clam is superbly marked. Quote Link to comment
kgoldy Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 One cellphone pic? Psh. Continuing virtual protest. What time is lights-out in your tank? Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) It's already out, I extended it way past bedtime while i was still glueing stuff. Edited November 28, 2012 by metrokat Quote Link to comment
Veng Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 thats one hell of a clam Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 thats one hell of a clam I still can't believe I bought a Squamosa. This and Derasas are my least fav clam. Thanks to Zeph all I look at are Maximas. But there was something about this one that just had me from the moment I saw a picture on Divers Den. It's an ORA. It's a neat little animal, the shell is very sharp, and from top down the clam looks more tan/brown peach. This one looks absolutely lovely from the side view just like so. Quote Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 That clam is gorgeous! I love the coloration of it - I think it'll add a nice splash of uniqueness to your already beautiful tank Quote Link to comment
Looselyhuman Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Even with a crappy cell phone pic, this clam is superbly marked. I would go so far as to say it is markedly superb. Quote Link to comment
tailes Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Here's one pic to tide you ovah.Online. IRL. Even with a crappy cell phone pic, this clam is superbly marked. That clam is beautiful! And I don't like Derasas or Squamosas. I think the mantles aren't as big or pretty as Maximas. But you scored big time! *I promise I'll read your thread more often! The client is driving me crazy and I end up working at night. Quote Link to comment
