August 17, 2023Gigas Clam, Aquacultured
The Gigas Clam (Tridacna gigas) is considered one of the largest species of clams in the world and is a prized addition to many aquariums. However, due to their large size and demanding care requirements, they are not suitable for most hobbyists and are generally only recommended for experienced aquarists with very large, well-established reef tanks. It’s important to note that the harvest and trade of wild Gigas Clams is illegal in many countries due to their endangered status, so any Gigas Clams that are available in the aquarium trade should only be aquacultured specimens. Aquacultured Gigas Clams are typically much smaller than wild specimens and can still be quite challenging to care for. They require pristine water conditions, high-intensity lighting, and a strong water flow, as well as regular feeding to supplement their photosynthetic abilities.

Dwarf Colored Feather Duster
Call for PriceThe Dwarf Colored Feather Duster, also known as the Dwarf Feather Duster or Sabellastarte sp., is a small and colorful species of marine segmented worm. It has a tube-like body that can range in color from red, orange, yellow, pink, or brown, with a feathery crown of tentacles used for feeding and respiration. This species is popular in reef aquariums due to its vibrant colors and filter-feeding habits. It requires a stable environment with high water quality and a consistent source of planktonic food. It is generally a hardy species that is easy to care for, but may require supplemental feeding in smaller aquariums. The Dwarf Colored Feather Duster is a sessile species that will attach to rockwork or other substrate in the aquarium. It reproduces by releasing larvae into the water column, which will settle and attach to a suitable surface to form a new individual. It may also retract into its tube if disturbed or threatened by predators.
