What is the largest clam you have?

The subject says it all.

How big?

How long have you had it?

Lighting?

Size tank?

In my 180g. under 3 250w 65k iwasaki's and 2 160w vho actinics.

7.5" crocea, I have had this clam for almost 2 years and it was maybe 4" when I got it. LFS bought and it is a hog, not as brightly colored but always looks good. You can see it in the very first pic in the 180 pics under and to the left of the big purple acropora.
