KrazyKuch's & Michika's 180Gal Tank Build

[michika]

Well most of my remaining fish are home, along with all my clams. I now have a total of 12 clams in my tank. We left the two chromis with Delphinius, Tony, because they are too fast to bother catching at this time. Thanks again Tony for watching everything!

Recently someone has asked me to assemble and share all my clam propagation resources I've been slowly amassing. Voila, here are some of the online publications with links.

Hey,

I was asked to post up more of my research sources. I'll post again once I've sorted through some more of my sources.
