Keeping Clams

I ordered some clams from Barry at Clams Direct about 3 weeks ago and they are doing very well. Can I order more or should I wait a little bit longer? He has some new ones and hate to miss out. How many clams can you put in a 90 ga tank?

Watch the calcium and ALK!! Clams are calcium hogs! As long as you can keep up with the demand I do not see why there is a limit, thgat is of course within reason. I once had 14 clams in a 65 gallon reef. All were 2-3 inches. Varied species.
