    Thanks, I have a spot in the front of my tank. Hopefully it stays there and looks pretty.

    Thanks Man,
    She is a pretty clam, I was scouring Google and wasn't able to find a Pink Maxima Clam like this one.

    Only by request, perhaps some macro shots in order. ;)

    Maybe you need some Purple/Pink in your tattoo.

    My thoughts exactly. I already have a decent amount of pink in my left sleeve but a real man can wear pink right? Take some quality pictures and it gets added to the pool of shots for the tattoo!

    Clam shipped a little sooner then expected, I won't be home all day.

    Am I able to come home on lunch and quickly drop the bag into my water to temp acclimate, then come back home at 8pm?

    Well I got the clam a few days ago and all is well, I really enjoy my tank right now. It feels almost like auto pilot at the moment. I have been testing water often and everything seems to be dead on. I'm still planning my sump build hopefully by the end of this year, next year I should have my BioPellets running along with my new skimmer.

    Below is a pic of my new happy clam. (It's Purple, Pink with a hint of Gold)

    I have no idea why but I feel this clam is not a Maxima, what do you guys think?
