T. Squamosa's generally require less light as compared to the T. Croceas and T. Maximas, since they come from deeper waters, but that wouldn't mean that they would survive under PC lighting. I would suggest VHOs or T5s as the minimum, and then depending on WHERE you place them.

Eh .. sry for hijacking.

Wuld like to know wad would b the neccessary to keep this clam or any other clam? Cos i m interested to keep one in future.

:thanks: in advance!

Believe me, you will probably end up keeping many. Requirements for keeping clams include:-

Good water conditions;

Bright lights (usually MH preferred);

Chiller (to counter the heat given off by the MH :P )

Just the basics. <_<

lol. yea end up sourcing for nicer and nicer clams. So far, me have 2 croceas and 1 squamosa. (Had a palm size Squamosa 2 mths back. Died for no apparent reason) :(

Agreed with bro Volitan that Good Water, Strong Lights and Chiller are basics to keep clams. By the way, just want to know...Will clams get an overdose of strong lights? Maybe the mantle might get burnt. Will it?
