| Reef Shark  | Re: Gigas In my 240 I want to have several clams. I already have 2 croceas, a little three incher, and a big 5.5 incher. I want to have two Gigas, 5 maximas, 5 croceas, 2 squamosas. I am in love with clams. I even have my aquascape designed with the clams already in the picture!!!!! I wish my tank was here. Also Megan will be putting two clams in her tank. A Crocea and a Maxima.I feel all clammy
