Sorry to be so long in this reply...so hope doesn't sound like hijack...but background for you on our shared passion for clams...Wow...need to do some serious proper name studying so I know which we are discussing...the "wavy" shelled one...natives called it the "killer clam" as they used to get huge and tales of divers getting their feet caught in them when they closed and were drowned ran rampant back then..my Dad had one that was a good two feet across !!! Lawn ornement....
The one that looks like brain was called such...and the one that looks like a tree with lots of branches called "staghorn"..
And yes...it was really cool....too bad I wasn't old enough to really appreciate it...was really scary at times also...maybe I'll do a "Marshal Island" thread someday..HA!!! Give people pause about buying LR for sure.
Anyway...your tank is awsome...a real talent for creating you have...can't wait to learn how you do it..
Try some emerald crabs for the bubble algae. They worked great for me....However they also worked great eating a Tyree $150 favia so keep an eye on them!
46g SW bowfront, 196W Coralife PC fixture, 2x 100W heaters on a Johnson Controls controller, AquaC Remora Pro skimmer (Mag3 pump), Marineland Magnum HOT cannister, Marineland 100 Penguin Biowheel (for transfer to QT), and a Koralia 2.
70 lb of live rock, and 4+" sand bed.
Various nassarius, turbo, trochus, astrea snails, a Tongan conch, and 4 small hermits, as well as a skunk cleaner shrimp.
3x Blue Chromis, Bangaii Cardinal, O.Clown, and a yellow clown goby.
Mostly LPS corals, with a few SPS thrown in high in the tank.
I was having a devil of a time with my (&*)%^camera.....I'll have to try it again....pssst....I got more corals a couple of days ago and I've got to brag.
