  1. Yup 2 pieces came in and 1 was taken away and now left one...... BTW i dun think are very rare these days as cora* fa** got at least 10pieces od dissumieri from the recent hawaii shipment..... Ard 6-8cm
  2. Saw from somewhere that clams do not get sting by other corals... But i doubt its true...... However my clam do react to some coral sting while other dun...... It depends i guess
  3. Yup.... they may behave for sometime but afetr one day, it may just go crazy and have a taste for clams and corals
  4. Hey no tangs are reef safe and thats somethign every reefer needs to know
  5. oo...understand le... so nothing have both adventage larh either hardy but the colour is not very pleasing and bright...or the colouration is very nice but is not as hardy..am i right to say that...? so the best is to get good lights ..haha..that must wait so..since that is the case, i may like to try out the hardiest clam first which is derasa ..big they come in odd shape ..i mean big... ..anyway will grt more info on them first before buying.. D_A
  6. eh better dun disclose too much.. talk through pm better
  7. Eh fish dn get trap in there for no reason..... They must be stress for some reason
  8. Its unlike the pohnpei black maxima you have......... This clam is of different location and to get pure black of this clam, its very difficult..... Pohnpei ones are easier to obtain
  9. Hmm actually........ its very dark brown and close to black........
  10. Next week??? you know what coming already??
  11. Eh me??? no no i dun want....... my tank is flooded with squamy liao...... I got a emerald green one, orange with blue spots one and the giant brownish gold one......... Anyway the new shipment of squamosa from PARA*** ree* very nice
  12. Newly accquired maximas and squamy
  13. FYI bristle dun eat fishes unless you fish are already sickly or dying....... that mother nature, from what you say i think your water has so problem too as fishes are weak and dying......... If you really dislike bristle, can pass them to me, they are good scavenger and dertivores you know
  14. Sing the NEMO song......... I am swimming swimming swimming
  15. Hey nice pic..... nice corals....... Hmm maybe can sell your giant squamy for coloured ones to add coloration
  16. Woh.... you are in for soem trouble with those guys
  17. Oh yah not to mention..... clam are very delicate creature thus very prone to attack from predator....... Some things like pyramid snail and aiptasia(not predator but has powerful sting that may harm clams)
  18. EH FYI......... crocea are the most difficult clams species to keep... Firstly they are rock boring clams, thus during collection, their byssal is always injured by accidental thus when the croceas arrive, they may look fine but after a while the crocea will die......Anyway byssal damage do not cause the clam to die immediately but it is a;ways due to infection that cause the clam death..... Therefore if you really want to have crocea, but those that come attach with a small piece of rock........ Next corcea are tough to keep because they love to exhibit their mantle so much, FYI crocea mantle are one of the widest when open thus they are very prone to being attack by predators or being damage by human. And finally, crocea are shallow water clams thus the light for them must be very strong(for me, i provide my clam with 400watt of light)... With so, all this factor make corcea very tought to keep........ Fpr beginner, if you have a large tank, go for derasa or squamosa, they are by far one of the toughest clams...... Being tolerant of low light intensity(some ppl keep them under Pl).... But the bad point is sqaumosa and derasa seldom come in nice colours.. mainly brown or gold..... Anyway the most sought after clam species is maxima... Coloured ones like crocea demand lots of light to be nice in color but IMO thwey are hardier than crocea........ Me no expert but just my 2cents
  19. YT are very greedy and easy feeders....... Anything from mysis shrimp, brine shrimp to even nori and alva will be eaten happily....... BUt remeber tang in the wild are big time herbivore thus our diet for them must consist of mainly vegetable
  20. tank existing state... have remove the unused tunze liao anyway comment are once again welcome
  21. Hmm yeah they are from the same region, vie****... kinda lok like the golden one in my tank........ Anyway i only bought the black one, the gold one was tonpang by my fren but sooner or later it will be mine........ Cos he is frighten by clam disease liao
