Reef_Mad_Man Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Steve973 I am sorry but Ihave to agree homey. I have been reefing for a VERY long time. In my experience with clams, when the mantel of a crocea clam gets brown it is a sure sing of death to come. as state din another post: Clams like other coral produce a UV protectant coating wich gives them thier coloration not the zooxanthellae. Zooxanthelae is brown. Whenyou see a clam shift from blue to brown around the mantel the UV protectant layer is dead. the clam will soo follow after a long drawn out death. CGnano. Your flat ATE UP. you cant find maximas for$20 bucks in NC h0lmes. You can barely find ricordea in NC for under $20 each. LOL! I used to live in the state Of NC I would know. I also know several petshop owners in the state of NC. SO in short your busted! LOL! This is ment as a fact giving, but ribbing sort of post. dont get your panties in as bunch. Link to comment
nanokube Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Can I get a clam in a 12g Nano Cube a small one ??? Is it worth it ?? Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 NO. Small ones are more difficult than larger ones, anyway, and the point of this whole thing was that stock lighting is NOT enough. Besides, there's more to the difficulty of clam-keeping besides lighting; you need an established tank and VERY stable parameters, including the calcium/alk. NOT for a new reefer. Link to comment
nanokube Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 figured that im not a newb but my tank is small and was just curious about the Clams Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Sorry to presume. But the fact that you ask, and the way you word it, it is proof enough that, well, NO. Link to comment
