These clams are tank raised - and come from right here in Colorado. The price per clam is $54.00. Shipping is a flat $25.00 USPS overnight for 1-3 clams (you just have to live in an Express Guaranteed overnight area). If you order a Golden Teardrop with any of these clams, I will throw that one in for $30.00.
If you have a question as to whether something in your tank may eat or harm these clams, send me a PM or an email. My email address is cfrecf @ yahoo . com without the spaces.
These clams are all about 2-2.5 inches.
If you want to check my feedback for some of the clams that I have already sold, you can look at the below link too.

The fourth one looks REALLY bad (I HAD to post it cause of the color though). They are all still acclimating. Some of them had a bit of mantle here or there taken off by a few small cleaner shrimp that got into the rearing tank
. It should grow back though.
The first one is some odd shade of green. Some, are more green, bluer, have more spots then others, have stripes - etc.

I actually almost wanna say I know. This is only the second batch too. They all settle into "synethic substrate" and need to be scooped out like a little ball of ice cream and scrubbed off. It's nuts how late I was up the last two nights.

How bout a few more....your other post had about 15 to chose from.

I'll see what I can do tomorrow. The problem is that they are just packed wall to wall in the holding tank and move around A LOT. Every single one has a different appearance; I just want to make sure they are fully extended so that I can recognize them. There is a REALLY nice one that has like a red brim to it that I am waiting for that thing to open all the way.
People can always PM or email me and tell me what they are looking for color and pattern wise and I can try to accomodate. I don't think there is any two of them that have the same shade of blue or the same color pattern. Not to mention the ones that are greener.

Nice clams. I'd like to point out to everyone how candycane clean the shells of the clams, adding to their overall beauty

I try to clean them. I sit there with 3 buckets for hours and use a hard bristled tooth brush. Some of the stuff is just ON THERE though. It is usually coralline algae. The gray stuff on the sides of some of them is just the synthetic substrate that they came from. Sometimes the scutes are so close together it's really hard to get.

More Pics. The ones up top are still around too. The 4th clam on the 1st post isn't ready for sale yet though.
Chunks out of mantle
: Above it tells what happened. It shouldn't take long for those parts to grow back at all. They don't harm the clam in any way.
Maxima #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5
