What is the green thing in the bottom right that the clown is in? Looks like some sort of shroom or montipora. I would like to put something in like that for my clown.

Those are frilly shrooms.Most people think it's a carpet anemone.
They grow very well over there.I have taken some out about 4-5 times.The clowns adore them,and lay their eggs on the glass just above them.I just got a pic of the eggs the other day.They are about to hatch,and you can see their little eyes.

Wouldn't T-5's work with any clams? My wife has been bugging me to get a clam, but I can't afford more lights right now and I have heard clams are a b%^&# to keep. Help me!

it depends on the depth of the tank, the type of clam, and how many T5s you have. how long the bulbs are, ect.

Thanks. One of my LFS is going out of business and had something similar. I may go back and get some to try out. I've been wanting my clown to take to something besides an anemone. He doesn't venture to the top much so I need to place something on the bottome like you have. Going back to the LFS tomorrow. They gave me some (well $3.00 each) shrooms and I will post some pics of them later.
