Sharing some clam pics

[JMW]

Hi guys, random... just sharing some pics of clams I took during my travels.. taken at a resort where they raise giant clams in captivity of re-introduction into the reefs when they are of a mature size & stable. Clams are endangered in the wild so this program they do is a huge thumbs-up for me! 

Pics taken under pure ambient daylight, no artificial lights whatsoever, but check out the amazing colors on the clams!

niCE~!! Just curious, which resort is that? Interesting to visit such resorts with reef conservation projects.

It's gaya resort, at Kota Kinabalu.. Good rite, these reef restoration projects, especially when the reefs in the oceans are suffering.. 

Can adopt coral too, I adopted a brain lol. They place it in the house reef & send you periodic updates as it grows

Chey.. i thought can adopt and bring back sg

Bo hua... Buy from LFS or fellow reefers way more economical haha

The price there is a lot higher compare to our local LFS ??? 

[JMW]

Those frags are for a reef conservation program mah, harvested captive from the house reef so buy back is damn exp one

buy aquaculture better IMO

I thought they should have pretty awesome reefs around that area, not commercially harvested regularly like indo or oz. Haven heard of any Sabah or Sarawak shipment though.

Yeah their reefs are quite good, but that region has some struggles with illegal fishing where they use cyanide or dynamite fishing methods..
