I wouldn't out and clam in the sand bed without a cradle or work they can get seriously messed up from the glass bottom

User Avatar @Soldier_of_GOD 1y

I have a frag plate under the clam in the sand so if they stick they stick on the frag and that happened

Smart move i never thought about using a frag plate good idea πŸ’‘ I have a maximal i want to move but I'm unable to from rock work Sadly πŸ˜₯ I'm hoping he just stays happy there he's 6 inchs

That’s very nice!! Yea when I moves it from the top of my tank to the bottom on the sand he was stuck to the frag but then because of the move he detaches and he attached again πŸ˜‚

I've been having issues with mine it's 6 inchs but I've noticed it had lost color on the skin it was bright blue but I've noticed some browning but it's extend3d good and all tank parameters are good.

It’s not getting enough light, A blue maxima clam browning is usually a sign that it's not receiving enough light. It can cause the zooxanthellae and it causes a lose and decline of color, maxima need a lot of light like intense light to thrive

It’s also opening all the way out just to get as much as light as possible

Interesting I'm maybe getting 300 par I'll see how it resolves I did just switch to t5 ho fixture

User Avatar @Soldier_of_GOD 1y

Yea these clams require a lot of light

User Avatar @ZebraFarm.inc 1y

Interesting worse case I'll trade it in for some coral or somthing but was highly hoping this one would be good at the very too of the tank where it should be doing perfect even been feeding phytoplankton
