What kind is it?

oh sorry, it is a crocea clam

Kind of exciting isn't it. I got my first one today as well.

I almost came home with one today but thought a little more research was necessary so i'm gonna tag along.

Were you at Bayside Corals today by chance?? Is that where you bought it? I made it there today for the first time and saw some nice Croceas. :) They actually have quite a nice selection of corals there.

On the note of the Croceas...my advice is really strong lighting for those ones! Be sure to keep your calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium in check as well.

Yes it was from Bayside Corals, they had lots of nice ones.

Good lighting is the best thing for any clam :) They are cool creatures, it's easy to become addicted to them!

I wonder if it was you that was in there while I was in there...? I was wearing a black sweater and white jeans. I remember a couple coming in while I was there, and there was a guy there when I arrived I believe he was just checking out. Were any of those people you?

I was there around 4pm and I was wearing a brown leather jacket and my wife was wearing a black downfilled jacket. I also bought a very nice Aussie Duncan Coral.
