By Daniel Knop
The giant clams of the genus Tridacnidae number among the "pearls" of the coral reef with their beautiful coloured patterning. In this book Daniel Knop introduces the reader to all nine known species of Tridacnidae. The author's contacts with leading scientists and universities, in addition to his ability to draw upon and evaluate his own experience with marine aquariums, have resulted in a comprehensive work on giant clams which contains detailed descriptions of their behaviour and ecology, anatomy and reproductive cycle.
