Click the thumb nails for full sizers...

Can anyone tell if this is a Maxima or a Crocea? I know the requirements are very similar so it's not big deal, but I'd like to know.

And now a few tank shots, for the adoring public

Yep... picked them up Sunday. I had been keeping an eye on the clams for a couple of weeks, decided to pull the trigger over the weekend.

lol yea...they were a good price, but when i was there they were buried and shadowed by the bigger crocea's, so i didnt want to take the chance but if yours is doing good i might just have to go and get one if there are any left...lol...

When I was there, there were 2 larger clams, though I don't think they were croceas, and 4 smaller ones. All looked to be doing well, I picked mine because it seemed the most "responsive" and colorful.
