cellowithgills Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Thought I'd start with a good ol' Maxima, I think next is a Squamosa, or a nice bright Crocea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVPaquatics Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I cant see the sides or the scutes but that looks to be a crocea....but very nice none the less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylaster Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 nice pretty sure that is a crocea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellowithgills Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 I must have gotten them backwards. I thought maxima's were rock clams, and crocea were substraight clams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Reef Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Yeah, that is a Tridacna Crocea. Smoothes ridges that are pressed against the shell. Tridacna Maxima has plates that come off the side of the shell and tier. -Ricky Soutas Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylaster Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Both maxima and crocea can be found on hard substrate, derasa, squamosa, gigas, and hipoppus are found in sand zones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cellowithgills Posted November 18, 2011 Author Share Posted November 18, 2011 It's turned out really nice. My coral beauty doesn't seem interested and it's got a big white sponge growing on the side of it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
