dont some corals get 12" the areas that arent exposed with clam mantle can be substrate for corals. ive seen pictures of acropora growing on clam shells, not thta i want acropora necessarily but i could use other nonagressive corals. also, they cant get algae growth on the mantle right? my logic is a rolling stone (a opening and closing mantle) cant grow moss (algae)

Tell that to GHA or Coraline algae, I don't think either has gotten the message as both have grown on my hermit shells.

All sorts of random stuff grows on my clam. Clams are light intensive animals and can grow extremely fast under the right conditions. My deresa has added about 0.5” of shell growth in about 2 months in my tank already. Like I’ve said in many of your other threads, focus on the tank you have and upgrading current equipment to better the current stock.

It would be difficult since they suck down ca and alk and nutrients like crazy. Would want a doser and test frequently. I would certainly consider it an advanced endeavor.
How about you first pull through with a normal tank for a couple years before throwing a new wild idea out there every week?
Or are you going to get bored of whatever you put in your tank just as fast?
