My new clam

[Cheapreef]

Picked this guy up yesterday, i was told it's a Squamosa but it doesn't look like the last squamosa i had. It could be because it's a young one though, i like him just the same.:D

Thanks, i'm using one 175watt 10k Ushio MH. The bulb is 5" off the water surface and the water is 14" deep. It's a 2' square tank so all i need is one MH, all my clams seem to like it.:)

WOW:eek2:
I just love cubes!
I wanted one , but the price was too high (36x36x24)
yours is especially nice- crisp clear and not over done.
How many gallons?

also, how do you like your maroon? I've heard they are tough.

Thanks guy's, i got the tank custom built for some work on a guys car, about $120. It's around 40gal with a 18gal sump, once the frags start to grow i might even have some coral action happening.:D The Maroon tough? As in hardy, yes. He's the first fish i ever bought, been moved to 3 systems already and not a hickup.;) Although if you mean a pain in the butt, some times just cause he's a little on the aggresive side.
