Wow! I guess I have a nano too then. I also have a 29 gallon. Does that mean I should start asking questions over here...LOL

Wow that looks nice. What all corals do you have in there? I have a 29 gal, but I have no corals yet. I need to figure out what is the best for a beginner I guess. You don't have much LR, is that not needed for corals? I like your black sand - that looks cool.

for any body who is curious, the clam is doing great it's sit in a pieice of lr that shaped like a bowel about mid hieght in the tank. it's mantle is always fully open cept when the light go off or on put always comes right back out shortly after like less then a min. not saying the situation is perfect but when is it. i've have had the clam now for several months.
