Just got my Crocea Clam from TritonsGarden

TritonsGarden had a contest and I won $50 worth of livestock and free overnight shipping. They had a nice Crocea Clam on their WYSIWYG so I decided to get it. Well my wife has informed me that the clam has arrived! She is floating it now and I am about to eject from work. I will post pictures in a little while. I am excited!

 

Nice congrats, Make sure to burp it (Roll it gently in your hand to get any air bubbles out) :grinthumbs:

 

Awesome, you def have to post pics of it, glad you won!

 

Ok, I am getting pictures off of my camera now we will see how they turned out (new camera still learning all of it's features.) The clam is in the tank and is settling in his spot ( i have had to pick him up a couple of times.) I floated him for about 45 min. until I got home then I drip aclimated him for about an hour. I burped him and we will see how it goes. He was a lot bigger than I expected he was between 3-4 inches which I expect 1-2 inches.

 

Ok pictures!

 

Here are some more pictures I just took. I just set this 75 up this past weekend so there is alot of dry rock without coraline yet. I moved everything from my 55 to this tank and added a bunch of sand and rock.

 

And a few more.

 

Congrats!

 

Yeah I am happy, I will be taking extra care of this guy because I have always wanted one but wasn't ready.

 

There is a lot more blue in the clam's mantel but I guess the camera couldn't really pick it up. I am sure if I set up a tri-pod and adjusted some settings I could pick it up, I will try today.
