Browsing some stores in far off lands and this is what I found:

You find the most interesting stuff.
Loving the orange (crocea?) clam!
Are those tiny rainbow trout?

Sweet Clams

lcstorc · 02-13-2008, 10:31 AM

Wow!
Great stuff.

See the acrylic rock holders underneath the rock on the last picture?
Looks nice, but I'm wondering how long until those get coated in coralline? A lot of Japanese reef keepers maintain a lower alk and ca level to discourage the growth of coralline algae and say it increases the growth rate of corals because they are not competing with coralline algae. I dunno though.

I want this one.
Centropyge interrupta

I'll even set up a FOWLR for it so it can't snack on corals.

EEK!

I think I can live without it.
