Always looked at them with envy and finally decided to try some in my 75 gallon. We've gotten parameters stable and have acros doing really well, so figured why not. I'm most concerned about placement. Where would you put these three (1 crocea, 1 maxima, 1 hippopus)? I was planning on putting the hippopus on the sand, and finding a spot near the SPS up top for the other 2 on the rockwork, where par is around 300-350? Does that sound appropriate?

yes, sounds good. Make sure them clams are nestled in the rocks good and there is room for growth away from the corals. I actually sometimes make a special rock carved out just for clams

I know those croceas love light. Nice clams
