Doing some research on Clam's before I buy one. I have got some interesting information on them from: They dam easy to keep provided:
1. Lighting is adequate
2. You don't have angels
To:
1. You have to have perfect water
2. They are very difficult to keep
Then there is WHICH clam to get and some items here:
1. Some are Rock boring clams which require a lot of LR
2. Some like the Sand rather than the rock
3. Some are easier to keep (will get the names got told but forgot) and some really require some serious horse power lights!
4. DON'T BUY clams under 3" or 6cm as they usually do not last!
Then there is where to position them and how to position them.
As I find interesting links I will be posting for the guys and gals out there like me that are tying to figure out the truth behind these wonderful creatures.
