    ATTN all current and future clam keepers!!

    I would like to mention to that i do not belive mh or vho lighting is necessary for a clam. I have had my clam about 2-3 years and it has easily doubled its size. I run 6 ho-t5 54w each. I just belive that clean water, stability in salinity and temp go a very long way.

    i need some advice on filtration for my 125 gallon

    You could use the 2 top holes for a surface skimmer and return, to and from a sump. For one hole you would put a small skimmer box mounted around an intake setup. the other the normal 2 headed return "shape shifty thing". On the bottem 2 holes do a close loop system for good flow. That is...
