Where have Gigas clams been? Rare clams?

[reefs4life]

Hey guys so I once had a gigas and I've really been wanting one again ever since I set up my 210. They have been really difficult to find though and I don't know where else to really look. Anyone know what is happening to them? And possibly where I can find one other than our marketplace?

Also, out of curiousity, has anyone ever come across a T. Tevoro clam?

Check with Cherry.Sometimes they have them.I bought a Hippopus one.The Tevoro might be endangered so it might not be available.

Status
The Tridacna gigus is listed on the IUCN Red List as VU - Vulnerable. They are listed as threatened by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

This wasn't the ONLY article I found stating that the Gigas clam was becoming endangered.
