They look great.

Question on the size. All things being equal with a normal running mixed reef does it matter which size with regards to success rate? Hopefully I asked that correctly.

For example buying a smaller, young, fish may not have enough food if introduced to a mature tank even though he knows what to do. The other fish are bullies and faster. On the other hand an older fish is set in its way and therefore may not take to frozen or pellet / other foods and slowly starve. So when I buy a fish I typically size it up based on info then try my best to buy something in the middle size range to help with my success rate. I think this is something I read Mr. Fenner suggested a while back in one of his talks and it stuck with me.

Corals and clams of course are different so was trying to see how the size effected the chance of success. Probably not a issue if ones tank is cared for but wanted to ask.

Being cultured, these are all equally hardy. The larger are more impressive, got 2 very nice 4 inch this time and lots of 3 to 3.5 inch. It's somewhat rare to get Maxima clams larger than about 3 inches due to it taking a long time to grow out.

Thanks. That actually makes a lot of sense with regards to the grow out time and cost. I actually like both of those although I'm not sure where I would put it. Better yet how it would look under my lights.

These grow out to about 12 or so inches?

I'm assuming these will be sale on sizes and won't be WYSWYG? Any option to select color or pattern?

I will be posting WYSIWYG and also our always popular our pick specials. I think I might also photograph groups and number them and post here and folks can order by number at a lower price than individual WYSIWYG.

The group and number is a great idea.
