redparrotbubbles85 Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 i have posted this same type of post before, but i thought that i may get some more detailed answers here in the advanced forum. here it is. i have a 10 gallon tank with 60w pc lighting. i do dose calcium and run a skimmer as well as an aquaclear filter w/ live rocks in it. i have 20-25lbs live rock and 10lbs live sand. with all of this do you think i would be able to keep a Hippopus clam in my tank? please specify why or why not and give a REASON for your answer.thanks a lot.

UncleJT Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Hippopus hippopus do fine under PC's as they are found in pretty deep waters in the wild and often in lagoons where light may be shaded with foliage from the shore. However, remember that this is the second largest clam species and they grow big and fast. - JT Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Ten gallon tank? A healthy, growing, hippopus would be able to even fit in that tank six months. I'd skip it. Link to comment
