I have a 55g tank that is ~20" tall and I was wondering if I could keep any clams. The LFS says no, but I have seen pictures of tanks using T5 that have had success with clams. I will be running a Tek Light 6 x 54W fixture.

i think you will be just fine. i know of plenty of reefers with close to the same set up raising clams with no issues.

I have a 55 with t5's and have 2 clams. My Squamosa has grown 1 3/4in. in 6 months.

I have a 75 with tek t-5 with 6 bulbs. My clam has been there for about a year with no issues.

That's what I thought. Thank you all for the advice.
