    well if they are actually t5's , and im guessing they are. i will give a hesistant yes you could keep a clam. youve got enough "light" for it. but only if theyre t5's.

    it also depends on what you would like to keep... something easy like a deresa or something hard like a maxima?

    I dont find anything hard about clams. they are IMO very easy if you have the right lighting and placement
