my 2 clams

Here is a picture of my 2 Maxima clams that I have recieved a few weeks ago. They were cheap 35 each. But they are also small, about an 1 1/2". So, I have to target feed them in a bowl of photo 2 times a week.

and #2

Nice looking clams! I've heard of the soda bottle thing before. I think someone uses something like that to feed their sun polyps.
