thats my 12" squamosa clam... not so much a coral but still needs the same conditions as many coral do...
good water, pleanty of light and circulation....
i wouldnt get a clam until u have Metal Hailde lighting and u have your water parameters down and can keep up with the demand of the Calcium and Alkalinty consumtion these big boys need lol....
they are nice additions to a reef tank thought!
thanks
