My new Clam

I got my second clam over the weekend, i forgot what he is called...think it starts with an S, sequosa or something....ne way took a pic, came out ok figures id post.

 

very nice Squamosa youve got there

 

im still diggin your black sand not too often i find someone else with good taste..hehe

 

very nice! and yeah I should have gone with the black sand too, I love it!

 

Looks awesome! I think I'm going to do black sand in my 10 gallon eventually.

 

What effect does switching to black sand have on light absorption and reflection? I would imagine that having white sand would increase the overall light reflection in the tank, making it a much more efficient substrate for growing coral. The darker the color, the more light absorption that occurs.... just a thought.

 

you are exactly right Phayes, in fact, if i did not have MH i dont know if i would be able to keep the monti i have alive. if you really plan on doing a bunch of sps's i would not reccomend black sand.

 

Very nice!
