Description
tridacna squamosa 5 - 6 cm WYSIWYG / 1456-U
This listing offers a photosynthetic Tridacna squamosa giant clam. Choose this individual clam by its original photographs and the specimen details below. Its species-specific lighting, water movement and spacing matter as much as the trade name.
Specimen reference: 1456-U. This reference identifies the photographed listing; it is not a size measurement.
Offered size: approximately 5–6 cm
Origin stated in the listing: Farm aquaculture
The product photographs show the specimen under blue aquarium lighting. Colour appearance can vary with your own lighting and viewing angle.
You receive the exact clam shown in the original product photographs.
Lighting and water movement
Lighting: strong; acclimate gradually and avoid shading by neighbours. Flow: moderate and indirect, allowing the mantle to open freely.
Placement and spacing
on a stable support with clear room for its mantle and further shell growth.
Feeding and water chemistry
suitable phytoplankton can be offered sparingly in the water for small clams; never inject it directly into the siphons.
24–26 °C, 34–35 PSU, alkalinity 7–8.5 °dKH, calcium 410–450 mg/l, magnesium 1,250–1,400 mg/l. These are guideline ranges for a stable reef, not targets to reach through abrupt adjustments. Keep alkalinity and salinity steady and avoid letting nutrients remain undetectable.
Acclimation and observation
Use an established aquarium. Do not use coral dips, glue the tissue or forcibly detach an attached clam.
Prepare a consistent testing routine with our guide to reef water testing.
