So I am thinking about getting a clam in a few months. Have not had one before so am doing some research first.
Most of what I read makes it sound like the lighting requierments kinda go as follows; dull colored clams-same lighting requ. as most LPS corals, bright colored clams- same lighting requ. as SPS corals. Have I interpretted this correctly?
Also by the time I am ready to decide if I will get a clam or not, I will have 200w of 50/50 PC lighting over a 20L. The clam would go about 6-8in under the lights. I know that PC's don't have the same intensity as MH. Would that amout of light be enough to keep one of the brightly colored clams and have it do well?
Thanks for the help.
