Guest Bemmer May 15, 2007 Share May 15, 2007 John, Your clams are awesome. Unfortunately, I have to hold off on clams for awhile. My majestic angel has taken a liking to their mantles. Someday...hopefully in 2007, I am going to get one of those awesome look down tanks and fill it with clams...just like someone we know....hey Jess.

You'll see, you will come over on sunday and see it, then head to ea and buy the big one!! -Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lletellier May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 (edited) as soon as I get a decent camera I'm going to snap a shot of my clam, how do you get the lookdown shots with the ripples in the water?? Edited May 16, 2007 by lletellier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeltwayBandit May 16, 2007 Author Share May 16, 2007 Well I can't take credit for this, I copied the one John at BRK uses. Take a piece of acrylic. Get a large diameter PVC pipe (I used a 6" union fitting). Glue the acrylic to one side of the pipe. Let dry. Make sure that this seal is water tight. Then to take pictures place the acrylic side into the water. Just enough so that it is below the surface. That way you can photograph from the top down, without interference from the surface of the water. Basically you are making goggles for your camera!

ctenophore May 17, 2010 Share May 17, 2010 Here is a great shot of my T. derasa clam in the greenhouse taken by Tony Vargas this past weekend. Finally a photograph that truly captures the beauty of this clam. Amazing that when viewed from the side though glass, this clam appears almost plain brown with white stripes, just a hint of color. Not so when viewed from above. This is why my next tank will be a reef pond! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
