    haha. Dude I want one though. It looks sweet. Could I get one for a 55g reef once it's cycled fully and maybe 1 month after having fish in it? What are the requiremtns for feeding/care?

    Yeah, you can. If you can keep SPS, then you shouldn't have any issue with a maxima, or any clam.


    Basically they need light, and they will go through a bit of calcium and alkalinity, so if you dose, or do frequent water changes you will more than likely be fine with one.


    You don't need to feed them anything, other than light.
