    I've wanted a clam for some time. My hopes in maybe one more year I'll try if things are running smooth. :2thumbsup: One day. :biglaugh:

    I would go with a nice squamosa. Very hardy and don't forget that there great filter feeders. They don't like to clean of a tank. I consider my big squamousa to be part of my total filtering system.

    I cant believe the color improvements I'm seeing in the tank. There is something in coral pro salt that the corals love. I'm 3 weeks in now since I changed back to coral pro. I honestly didn't expect color changes this quick or this much. Once my new XM 20k bulbs come in everything should color up even more. I'll get pics soon once the halides come back on tomorrow.

    Thanks man. I woke up this morning and saw that my scoly was pushed into one of my chalices. The scoly has lost some tissue so I hope it pulls through. You don't see this color often.

    beautiful as usual dsc! I am confused though, I thought you mentioned that you were going to switch to LED's? Love the baby clams! very colorful. So glad to hear your color has come back so quickly - that's interesting about the salt.

    Thanks ofk. I'm switching to the radion pro eventually, maybe this year but I need the 20k halide bulbs to run for now. I will never switch salts again. I can't believe the difference it has made.

    Thank you. Very risky buying them that small but we'll see.
