This is the best I can do for you guys... kinda cliche these days, but sorry about the quality... phone pic! lol
BTW... whatever it is, it's easily my favorite clam so far. And for what it's worht, it looks exactly the same (shell and mantle) as the other clam that I have that I was told was a Squamosa... and it looks nothing like my Maxima. That said, please confirmn... I'd like to know!

Does look great. Patterning is indeed more typical of squamosa. As stated the true test is the byssal opening, squammies have them very small compared to maxima or crocea. Mantle and shell otherwise can be really similar looking.
Nice score! Man I hope some more of these pop up some day.

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

The Cook Islands will be 5-6 short, but there will be enough for everyone currently asking, plus a few more.
I may be able to keep one in the store DT Ken |
