When Annick came to me and said she wanted to give something back to 3reef and sent me this gem I was thrilled!

I have a feeling this will be a very popular thread.
Annick you have certainly earned the '3reef Contributor' badge and 100 karma. I will get this in the article database soon as well.

Great job! And thanks!!!

Ok does anyone have more info with clam compatibility and triggerfish? I have a male Bluejaw and would like to add a crocea or two to my sps reef. From what I can gather it's sorta hit and miss with triggers and clams.
Thanks, Scott

And that's pretty much the same answer that I'd give you. Unfortunately, there's no cheap way to find out whether or not your fish will eat a clam.

Well that confirms my thoughts. At least we have another tank to move a clam to in the event of snack time.
Thanks, Scott
