albertareef Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 So we finally found a clam we couldn't resist at CnC last weekend. It is a good sized tricolor gold, purple and green and seems to be setting into it's new home. It already found a friend as our 8 inch sea cucumber decided to snuggle up to it all day to give it a squishy welcome. As per usual, shot through the glass doesn't due this clam justice. Shout out to Jeff for the awesome specimen @CuttleFishandCoral 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will need to get a top down with the real camera so you can actually see the colors. Jeff had two nice ones on Sunday and some other folk in the shop bought the other as we were deciding on this one... close call! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higher Thinking Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I saw that clam (same time as I saw you, I guess!). It was definitely my pick of the litter between that one and it's cousin. Beautiful contrasts of colors. I went the cheap route and just bought one of the 3" ones [emoji6][emoji6]Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably would have brought one of those home if not for this big guy 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obrien.david.j Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 You're killing me, I'd really like to see a better real color picture of this clam. How about: https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/clip-on-photo-lens-kit-icecap.html https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/coral-view-lens-v2-polyplab.html Turn on the white lights, and take a few new new picts? Or... Convince @SuncrestReef to bring over his camera and snap some shots to post? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have that camera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have that camera? Yeeesh - tough crowd! Yes, I do still have my Nikon 800E and the 60mm macro I got from you as well as the Avast - what I don't have any of these days is time! In fact, my wife took that shot during the day while the lights were on and texted it to me so I could actually see the clam out - the lights are off by the time I get home. Might be able to get a real shot on Saturday but that's on the list with about 100 other things I have to do so no promises 🤗 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
