As the title say's Nemo is missing :scratch: from my 270 gallon (6'L x 3'W x 2'H) tank. Could it have been swallowed by one of my clams? Luckily Dora (Blue Hippo Tang) and a yellow tang were able to escape the wrath of my 3 giant gigas clams. Luckily Nemo was never missing since I never bought one :lol:!!!

I've had these clams anywhere from 2 to 5 years since setting up my 270 gallon tank 5 years ago. The clams take up about 1/2 the tank and were purchased when they were 5 inches and are now well over 12 inches long. The purple mantle gigas clam in the middle is my prized posession. For sizing reference, the Hippo Tang is 6" long and I've had it for over 14 years!!! Hope this is the correct place to post. Enjoy the pics :tongue1:.

More pics at different angles. I measured the purple mantle gigas at around 15 inches. The clam on the left with the two tone mantle is the same length. Enjoy :tongue1:!!!
