i got my first Tridacna clam last week. i believe it is a T. crocea (LFS didnt know and ive been trying to id since) but it may very well be a T. squamosa. either way, the pigment of the zooxanthellae seems quite brownish, so it is a deeper water clam i believe. is this true?
i like that because i do not run MH for my reef. i have almost 5 wpg and my tank is quite shallow - 18" but with a 3" DSB, so 15" with DSB.
the clam seems to be doin well. i have some Tetraselmis sp. cultures and i can tell the clam enjoys the daily addition of live phyto greatly.
pics to come soon...(i know i say that alot but i have no cam... when i can borrow one i will post pics )
